Any kernel newer than 4.14.x will not boot on large ia64 NUMA systems due to the changes in 543cea9a [1][2]. This bug does not affect systems like the RX-2600 which boot Linux 5.9 just fine. There are two minor regressions in 5.10, one has already been bisected [3] > Does it make sense to try to start reporting bugs and hangs with ia64 > 4.x kernel series, being 5.10 is out... Not really as 5.9.0 boots on smaller systems like the RX-2600 and the issue with the larger systems has already been bisected to 543cea9a. The problem with the regression you are seeing is that multiple attempts to fix the issue have so far failed and we haven't found a working fix yet.
