Good point, looks like my initial fix is incomplete. I'll repost a more complete fix but in the meantime, does adding the following work for you? diff --git a/arch/arm/kvm/interrupts.S b/arch/arm/kvm/interrupts.S index 3ac7aca..5b30047 100644 --- a/arch/arm/kvm/interrupts.S +++ b/arch/arm/kvm/interrupts.S @@ -487,6 +487,7 @@ switch_to_guest_vfp: @ NEON/VFP used.
