So, it's been three weeks, no hangs, no crashes, everything's fine on my W530 (which is my primary working machine) with 5.4.28-gentoo kernel and HT disabled by coreboot patch. CPU is i7-3940XM.

Could be... Thanks for testing!
I've also put it on some of my daily work machines: a quad-code Ivy and a dual-code Sandy in order to see how it works in a real world... Works so far. So if it doesn't end up crashing in a week or two I'd say it's stable. We'll see.

Update II:
All tests passed with and without HT enabled!
I discovered something curious though - if I disable HT memtest86+ finishes a pass in 45ish minutes. If I enable HT it takes 4+ hours.
I don't know if it's due to coreboot or memtest86+ as memtest86+ v5.01 also took around 4+ hours for all tests with HT enabled.
Maybe it is a bug with memtest86+ ?

Update: I managed to get memtest86+ v5.31b running.
I downloaded the .iso.zip and used geteltorito v0.6 to turn the .iso file into a 1.44meg floppy image. I then added the floppy image like the memtest86+ v5.01 floppy image to my coreboot image (4.12 + patchset 15).
Preliminary tests with memtest86+ v5.31b went without an issue (Note: I didn't run all the tests, but test #7 was passed with and without HT).
I'll try to run all tests with and without HT on 4.12 + patchset 15 around the weekend.
