I don't think they are related as the execution has not reached the
device tree parsing yet.
It crashes before executing anything inside the DT parsing code.

__efistub_ is just a prefix to make sure that there are no absolute
relocations in .init section.
It is also enabled in defconfig. So you should see that error as well.

Maybe GCC has to do something with it. Because adding "nolnine" solves
it for me.
I am using v11.1.0.

I will try those changes and update the thread.

I will send a patch to Qemu to append the extension strings to the device tree.
