I'm pretty sure Fedora is hitting this in our VMs. I just spent some time debugging an issue of a boot delay with someone from the infrastructure team where it would take upwards of 2 minutes to boot. If someone holds down a key, it boots in 4 seconds. There's a qemu reproducer at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1572916#c3 I suggested a cat on the keyboard as a workaround.
Independently, we also got a report of a boot hang in GCE with 4.16.4 where as 4.16.3 works which corresponds to the previous report of a stable regression. This was just via IRC so I didn't have time to dig into this.
Thanks, Laura
