the possible workarounds all seem very unrelated to me. There is a high
chance that your outdated kernels contain too much undefined behaviour
and the only thing you change by all these workarounds is the outcome
of a race. I have seen this more than once. A different firmware may
change the timing of events in the kernel slightly and trigger different
bugs thereby. Last time I spent days to prove coreboot innocent, it
turned out that our kernel issue (EC/keyboard related) also showed up
when I disabled serial UARTs in the vendor BIOS. The kernel tried to
initialize the keyboard few milliseconds earlier and BOOM ;)
