In fact BIOS 1705 without any boot option seems to provide a stable machine (51 hours of stress test without failure). Plus BIOS 1705 has an explicit TLB fix auto/enable/disable that the previous BIOS didn't have (even if TLB fix was on).
So probably it was probably a BIOS bug, we're continuing the stress testing.
