And no, it does not. Not by itself, but the fact that deadline elevator was
compiled as module certainly helped!
This explains the hanging modprobe in the dmesg output (the part after device
connect). I still wonder, why didn't it froze at boot, mounting SATA devices
(the root, /var, and /home are on an SSD connected by SATA)? And why hanging
khubd at reboot?
Anyway, building the elevator in the kernel avoids the problem. Sorry for
not spotting this earlier.
Now, who would be interested to handle this kind of misconfiguration ...
