The blamed patch attempted to do a trivial conversion of
map_mem_in_cams() by adding an extra "bool init" argument, but by
mistake, changed the way in which two call sites pass the other boolean
argument, "bool dry_run".

As a result, early_init_this_mmu() now calls map_mem_in_cams() with
dry_run=true, and setup_initial_memory_limit() calls with dry_run=false,
both of which are unintended changes.

This makes the kernel boot process hang here:

[    0.045211] e500 family performance monitor hardware support registered
[    0.051891] rcu: Hierarchical SRCU implementation.
[    0.057791] smp: Bringing up secondary CPUs ...

Issue noticed on a Freescale T1040.

Fixes: 52bda69ae8b5 ("powerpc/fsl_booke: Tell map_mem_in_cams() if init is done")

Thanks for you patch.

However, it should already be fixed in 5.16-rc2 with the following commit : https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/5b54860943dc4681be5de2fc287408c7ce274dfc
