Interestingly, all your CPUs are booting at EL2. Which is great.  Can
you try and enable KVM on your existing 5.10 kernel? Just selecting
CONFIG_KVM should be enough. Does it boot correctly with KVM enabled?

My suspicion is that the firmware doesn't set SCR_EL3.HCE, and that
the HVC instruction UNDEFs at EL1. That would be bad news.
Other Brahma-B53 devices that we work with (set-top box and cable modem 
chips) boot 5.12 and beyond correctly, and indeed, our EL3 firmware 
sets-up SCR_EL3.HCE.
