Test on 5.19-rc1 with this patch with qemu boot with -bios
QEMU_EFI-2022.fd, seems not work, same as rc1.

real    2m42.948s
user    0m2.843s
sys     0m1.170s

qemu: stable-6.1

build/aarch64-softmmu/qemu-system-aarch64 -machine
virt,gic-version=3,iommu=smmuv3 \
-enable-kvm -cpu host -m 1024 \
-kernel /home/linaro/Image -initrd /home/linaro/tmp/ramdisk-new.img
-nographic -append \
"rdinit=init console=ttyAMA0 earlycon=pl011,0x9000000 kpti=off acpi=force" \
-bios QEMU_EFI-2022.fd

Thanks
