Confirmed. Bisection says

873d50d58f67ef15d2777b5e7f7a5268bb1fbae2 is the first bad commit
commit 873d50d58f67ef15d2777b5e7f7a5268bb1fbae2

x86/asm: Pin sensitive CR4 bits

this is on a bog-standard Intel setup with F30, both desktop and
laptop (i9-9900k and i7-8565u respectively).

I haven't confirmed yet whether reverting just that one commit is
required, or if I need to revert the cr0 one too.

I also don't have any logs, because the boot never gets far enough. I
assume that there was a problem bringing up a non-boot CPU, and the
eventual hang ends up being due to that.
