Hey Christoph,
Sory for the delay - I've been trying to kick the earlycon into working
but something w/ bootloader/firmware is not playing ball.

git checkout 6424e31b1c05
Previous HEAD position was c5eb0a61238d Linux 5.18-rc6
HEAD is now at 6424e31b1c05 swiotlb: remove swiotlb_init_with_tbl and swiotlb_init_late_with_tbl
git checkout 6424e31b1c05^
Previous HEAD position was 6424e31b1c05 swiotlb: remove swiotlb_init_with_tbl and swiotlb_init_late_with_tbl
HEAD is now at 3f70356edf56 swiotlb: merge swiotlb-xen initialization into swiotlb

3f70356edf56 boots fine. 6424e31b1c05 does not boot.

As I said, earlycon isn't playing ball rn, but I will keep kicking it
& will let you know once it does..

Thanks,
Conor.
