I think I've found the reason. trim_snb_memory() reserved the entire first
megabyte very early leaving no room for real mode trampoline allocation.
Since this reservation is needed only to make sure integrated gfx does not
access some memory, it can be safely done after memblock allocations are
possible.
I don't know if it can be fixed on the graphics device driver side, but
from the setup_arch() perspective I think this would be the proper fix:

Subject: [PATCH] x86/setup: move trim_snb_memory() later in setup_arch to fix
boot hangs
Commit a799c2bd29d1 ("x86/setup: Consolidate early memory reservations")
moved reservation of the memory inaccessible by Sandy Bride integrated
graphics very early and as the result on systems with such devices the
first 1M was reserved by trim_snb_memory() which prevented the allocation
of the real mode trampoline and made the boot hang very early.
Since the purpose of trim_snb_memory() is to prevent problematic pages ever
reaching the graphics device, it is safe to reserve these pages after
memblock allocations are possible.
Move trim_snb_memory later in boot so that it will be called after
reserve_real_mode() and make comments describing trim_snb_memory()
operation more elaborate.
Fixes: a799c2bd29d1 ("x86/setup: Consolidate early memory reservations")
