Description

Hi,

linux-libre 5.3.8 does not boot on a Thinkpad X220. I am attaching the relevant part of the syslog.
Here's the more evident errors:

Nov 09 18:41:06 x220 kernel: general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI
[…]
Nov 09 18:41:06 x220 kernel: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000030
[…]
Nov 09 18:41:06 x220 kernel: Oops: 0000 [#2] PREEMPT SMP PTI

Downgrading to 5.3.7 fixed this.

I also found it strange that the 5.3.8 kernel plus headers occupies almost 30 MiB less than 5.3.7.
