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 4c674481dcf9974834b96622fa4b079c176f36f9

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?
