Hi,

I cannot boot linux-next 20210408 nor 20210409 on an antique
x86_64 laptop (Toshiba Portege).

After many failed tests, I finally resorted to git bisect,
which led me to:

git bisect start

I reverted both of these patches and the laptop boots successfully:

commit a799c2bd29d19c565f37fa038b31a0a1d44d0e4d
Author: Mike Rapoport <rppt@kernel.org>
Date:   Tue Mar 2 12:04:05 2021 +0200

    x86/setup: Consolidate early memory reservations

&&

commit 4c674481dcf9974834b96622fa4b079c176f36f9
Author: Mike Rapoport <rppt@kernel.org>
Date:   Tue Mar 2 12:04:06 2021 +0200

    x86/setup: Merge several reservations of start of memory


There is no (zero, nil) console display when I try to boot
next 0408 or 0409. I connected a USB serial debug cable and
booted with earlyprintk=dbgp,keep and still got nothing.

The attached boot log is linux-next 20210409 minus the 2 patches
listed above.


Mike- what data would you like to see?
