H. Peter Anvin · H. Peter Anvin · commit a536877e77f7 · 2011-07-21T11:47:17.000-07:00
Yet another variant of the Dell Latitude series which requires reboot=pci. From the E5420 bug report by Daniel J Blueman: > The E6420 is affected also (same platform, different casing and > features), which provides an external confirmation of the issue; I can > submit a patch for that later or include it if you prefer: > http://linux.koolsolutions.com/2009/08/04/howto-fix-linux-hangfreeze-during-reboots-and-restarts/ Reported-by: Daniel J Blueman <daniel.blueman@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: H.
