[BUG] 4.17-rcX delays during boot and memory mapping errors
From: Bob Tracy

Apologies for not having more in the way of diagnostic info.
Every one of the 4.17-rcX series has hung during boot at the point where
"acpid" starts up. Beginning with -rc5, the boot actually proceeds to
completion after an "uncomfortably" long delay.
Attempting to run the X11 server results in the following diagnostic
output in "/var/log/Xorg.0.log":
