Aha. So it looks difference is probably in "where is keyboard plugged
in" but in "reboot" vs. "cold boot". I did not do a cold boot in quite
a while :-(.

Booting to grub, then hitting ctrl-alt-del is enough to make it work. Ouch.

It happens with current Linus' tree.

"usbcore.nousb usbcore.nousb=1" on kernel command line does not
help. So maybe it is not USB after all. (Sorry).

If I do the reboot dance with 4.10-rc6, messages around the hang are:

[    0.281948] RPC: Registered named UNIX socket transport module.
[    0.282009] RPC: Registered udp transport module.
[    0.282068] RPC: Registered tcp transport module.

[    0.318646] workingset: timestamp_bits=62 max_order=20

So I guess this is something with PCI subsystem?

Ideas welcome...
