0xc0000 — SMC: silent sensor
SMC “BSC failure” panic: the system management controller (built into the SoC) periodically waits for a response from each mandatory sensor; here, two sensors are missing: charging port (0x40000) and proximity (0x80000). With no response, it forces a restart, which repeats roughly every 3 minutes (≈180 s) as long as the sensor stays silent.
