It boots now. dmesg has these new messages:

[    0.081777] Node 4 uninitialized by the platform. Please report with boot dmesg.
[    0.081790] Initmem setup node 4 [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000000]
...
[    0.086441] Node 127 uninitialized by the platform. Please report with boot dmesg.
[    0.086454] Initmem setup node 127 [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000000]

vCPU/node hot add works.
Onlining works as well, but with warning. I do not think it is related to the patch:

Hot remove does not quite work. It might be issue in ACPI/Firmware code or Hypervisor. Debugging…

Do you want me to perform any specific tests?
