Thanks for testing this Ard. For testing Mixed mode, I have used QEMU/KVM with 64-bit and 32-bit OVMF and mixed mode is broken for me without this patch. I am using an older OVMF build and probably that might be the reason for us seeing different behaviors. Also, kernel config file might have some role to play.. I guess. Regards, Sai
