Regression: kexec/kdump boot hangs with x86/vector commits

[Dave Young]

Hi,

Kexec reboot and kdump has broken on my laptop for long time with
4.15.0-rc1+ kernels. With the patch below an early panic been fixed:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10084289/

But still can not get a successful reboot, it looked like graphic
issue, but after bisecting the kernel, I got below:

[dyoung@dhcp-*-* linux]$ git bisect good
There are only 'skip'ped commits left to test.
The first bad commit could be any of:
2db1f959d9dc16035f2eb44ed5fdb2789b754d6a
4900be83602b6be07366d3e69f756c1959f4169a
We cannot bisect more!

These two commits can no be reverted because of code conflicts, thus
I reverted the whole series from Thomas (below commits), with those
x86/vector changes reverted, kexec reboot works fine.

Could you help to take a look, any thoughts?  I can do the test
if you have some debug patch to try.
