We have half a dozen or so different machines in CI that are silently
failing to boot, that we believe is bisected to this patch.
17:56 tsa : ickle: dolphin: I hit the following patch in my
bisection, and the hang is also dependent on kconfig
17:56 tsa : first bad commit:
[d3921cb8be29ce5668c64e23ffdaeec5f8c69399] mm: fix initialization of struct
page for holes in
memory layout
17:57 tsa : couldn't reproduce on older CI kconfig, current one
does it

Here's a boot dmesg from some affected machines from just before the merge
with rc5:
