Copying https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D203627 here, a=
s I'm not
sure where to report the issue (and got no response in kernel bugzilla so f=
ar)
After linux-firmware upgrade from 4b6cf2bd1a9d53caa087403d943e7695009c1d0c =
to
711d3297bac870af42088a467459a0634c1970ca (20190514), 4.19 kernels (at least
4.19.40-4.19.45) don't boot anymore. Early during boot the monitor turns of=
f,
and, apparently, the system hangs. Can't connect over SSH, SysRq keys don't
work. Also the failed boot attempt doesn't get recorded by journald.
Kernels 5.0 and 5.1 still boot completely fine. Also, 4.19 kernels boot if I
downgrade firmware back to 4b6cf2bd1a9d53caa087403d943e7695009c1d0c.
Apparently, these problems are caused by
