Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2015-08-04 17:39:00 UTC 
Probably last working version was:

grub2-efi-1:2.02-0.16.fc22.aarch64
Comment 3 Richard W.M. Jones 2015-08-04 18:09:20 UTC 
I confirmed that downgrading to grub2-2.02-0.16.fc22 fixes the problem.
Comment 4 Peter Robinson 2015-08-05 16:47:08 UTC 
From rjones on IRC:

<rjones> lemme find the suspect patch, one min
<rjones> http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/grub2.git/tree/0010-strip-.eh_frame-section-from-arm64-efi-kernel.patch?h=f22
<rjones> we didn't conclusively prove anything, but the suspect was that ^ patch being dropped in a rebase
Comment 5 Peter Jones 2015-08-05 17:08:43 UTC 
That patch is there; it's in the upstream repo, so it's part of grub-2.02-beta2-to-origin-master.patch , rather than being one of /our/ patches, and so individually applied.
Comment 6 Peter Jones 2015-08-05 17:15:35 UTC 
Oh, I see - it's actually a patch to generate more debuginfo, which causes .eh_frame to exist.  In the long run the answer is probably to /handle/ the relocations, but for now I'll back the patch out.
