      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

       

      What is the impact of this issue to you?

      On Ampere Altra systems and EFI is AMI aptiov, 
      After upgrade the grub2 package from grub2-efi-aa64-2.06-82.el9.aarch64 to 2.06-92.el9 , the 2.06-92.el9 will cause system crash. 

      By the way, I recompiled the 2.06-92.el9 without the patch 0351-arm64-Use-proper-memory-type-for-kernel-allocation.patch, it can boot to Linux kernel. 

      Suppose this patch impact the system and cause the system crash. 

      Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:

      When crash, it will shows
