[coreboot] Resume problems on Lenovo X60t

Hello Paul,

Few observations:

[1] Lenovo X60t is 10.5 years old laptop, and I am really surprised that
Kernels series 4.x still support it. I'll call it: miracle!
http://www.tabletpcreview.com/tabletreview/lenovo-thinkpad-x60-tablet-pc-review/

[2] It is obvious (at least to me) what is happening to your Lenovo X60t:
your DRAM is exhausted, thus no possible to add anymore Physical Table
Entries, since no physical memory available in your system (this is the
result of unknown root cause, which I'll try to discover from incomplete
log you had posted):
12.951: [  350.898287] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at
f8281008
12.951: [  350.898346] IP: gen2_write32+0x62/0x130 [i915]
12.951: [  350.898347] *pde = 34c88067
*12.951: [  350.898349] *pte = 00000000*

[3] Here is probable closer clue to root cause for [2]:
12.951: [  350.898429] CPU: 1 PID: 1113 Comm:* kworker/u4:32* Tainted: G
        E   4.11.0-rc7 #23
12.951: [  350.898431] Hardware name: LENOVO 636338U/636338U, BIOS CBET4000
4.5-1596-gccdb801 04/19/2017
12.951: [  350.898436] Workqueue: events_unbound async_run_entry_fn

32 is killing number, my best guess is that you have 32 k-processes calling
32 system calls at once (maybe the same syscall)!?

[4] I will suggest to run as root ps -elf (capture traces of it), top,
htop, and to read the following open net thread:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/33640/kworker-what-is-it-and-why-is-it-hogging-so-much-cpu
(especially: *Why does kworker hog your CPU? To find out why a kworker is
wasting your CPU, you can create CPU backtraces: watch your processor load
(with top or something) and in moments of high load through kworker,
execute echo l > /proc/sysrq-trigger to create a backtrace. (On Ubuntu,
this needs you to login with sudo -s*).

Good Luck!
Zoran
