Ah, forgot to answer what problem it causes:
It causes an unresponsive  rainbow-screen on hdmi and on console=20
we can only see the uart_2ndstage=3D1 - output(then it hangs), maybe you =
JTAG-machine knows more =E2=80=A6
But it=E2=80=99s official, that armstub-gic.bin is no more needed to =
boot 64bit(only for older firmware needed)
