I'm not seeing any issues on my EPYC system. Let me see if I can locate a
Threadripper system to test on.

It seems very strange that the commit in question would cause a hang so
early. Do you have a serial console hooked up for the earlyprintk? Is the
serial port set up in legacy mode (e.g. 0x3f8 as opposed to being an MMIO
device that would require a driver)?

Can you dump the ACPI tables / run them through iasl to see what the _PXM
values are in the DSDT table?

Thanks,
Tom
