Lets first prove that my theory is right before contacting MSI directly.
Can you try the attached patch? it should fix the boot-crash. When the
system booted successfully please try some USB device (make sure it uses
the seperate usb-controler, I guess the seperate device is responsible
for USB 3, so try to plug a device into one of your USB 3 ports).
If you finished that please send me whether it worked or not and the
full dmesg output of the system.
