and it's hanging at "memset(log_tbl, 0, sizeof(*log_tbl) + log_size);"
Thanks. Well, it looks like the memory that is supposedly allocated is not
usable. I'm thinking this is a firmware bug.
Ard, would you agree on this assumption? Thoughts on how to proceed?
Check if the BIOS is up to date?
How would that help? The no regression policy demands, that Linux continues
working on systems, where it worked before. So upgrading the firmware is no
solution, is it? Until a solution is found, the commits should be reverted.
Nope. You are right.
