I was able to reproduce this issue on v5.1-rc3 on a SoftIron Overdrive 1000
(AMD Seattle (Rev.B1)) with defconfig+ARM64_64K_PAGES with:

qemu-system-aarch64 -cpu host -machine type=virt,accel=kvm -nographic -smp 4
-m 4096 -kernel /boot/vmlinuz-4.9.0-7-arm64 --append "console=ttyAMA0
default_hugepagesz=2M hugepages=256"

The 'default_hugepagesz=2M hugepages=256' had no effect on the reproducibility,
however the guest only intermittently failed to boot. Applying the above
patch fixed this and the guest boots every time.
