chr_testdev_init() ensures vcon is NULL if it fails to initialize.
chr_testdev_exit() immediately returns if vcon is NULL. This was
done by design to allow fallback exits to be placed below the
chr_testdev_exit call, e.g. halt().

We should be able to drop patch 3/7 and change exit() to this

  void exit(int code)
  {
      chr_testdev_exit(code);
      psci_system_off();
      halt(code);
      __builtin_unreachable();
  }
