Had to turn off modules to get it to build. It half-logged another
oops, but no backtraces, and SysRq+r does nothing. Nothing else
unusual in the log.

Apparently I do use swiotlb - I didn't know that, and can't see
where it gets asked in menuconfig, but I can see
CONFIG_SWIOTLB=y

Let me know if there is anything else I can test (probably pm
