Subject: 4.17.0-rc1 doesn't boot.

Hi,
my notebook doesn't boot with 4.17.0-rc1. Booting stops right after
displaying "loading initial ramdisk..". No further displays.
Also nothing is wriiten to the logs.

First known bad kernel is: 4.16.0-12564-g6b0a02e
Last known good kernel is: 4.16.0-12548-g71b8ebb

Maybe the problem came in with:
6b0a02e:  "Merge branch 'x86-pti-for-linus' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip"


Thanks, Jörg
