Hey, no prob! I can't see how and why that would be KASLR related,
and most likely it's not. Probably we just hit some fault sooner
with it enabled.

So far it seems that reads from /dev/kmsg are causing problems
on my laptop, but it's a bit hard to debug.

Nothing printk-related in my boot params.
