I did some tests on the laptop,  thing is:
1. apply the 3 patches (two you posted + Boris's revert commit 52b922c3d49c)
   on latest Linus master branch, everything works fine.

2. build and test the tip/next-merge-window branch, kernel hangs early
without output, (both 1st boot and kexec boot)

So I think these 3 patches are good,  but there could be other issues
which is not related to the problem we saw.

Another thing is we can move the get rsdp after console_init, but that
can be done later as separate patch.

Thanks
Dave
