[Bug 1956575] Re: [Regression] Focal kernel 5.4.0-92.103 fails to boot when Secure Encrypted Virtualization(SEV) is enabled

 

The 5.11 hirsute kernel already contains the fix, so I'm marking it as
invalid:

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
  The latest Focal kernel (linux-image-5.4.0-92-generic) fails to boot
  when SEV is enabled.
  
  The kernel panics with the following backtrace :
