When a caller is not interested in the returned message, the ret_payload pointer is set to NULL in the u-boot-sources. In this case, under EL3, the memory from address 0x0 would be overwritten by ipi_req() with the returned IPI message, damaging the original data under this address. The patch, in case ret_payload is NULL, assigns the pointer to the array holding the IPI message being sent.

Based on origin series from Adrian. That's why also adding his SoB line. https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211014124349.1429696-1-adrian.fiergolski@fastree...
Adrian: The patch is just suggestion how we could avoid that NULL pointer writes but done in ipi_req()
