Seems I've found root cause of the issue - FIX_KMAP_BEGIN offset need to be taken into
account in switch_kmaps() and below diff fixes this issue for me.
What I'm not fully understand is why I'm the only one who hit this issue :(
New functionality was added by commit:
commit a5f4c561b3b19a9bc43a81da6382b0098ebbc1fb
ARM: 8415/1: early fixmap support for earlycon
and it is enabled by default.
Luckiness :(
