From what I was reading on lkml last night, all the issues reported
against 4.15-rc from fedora have now been fixed in Linus's tree, but
I do not know if those fixes have yet reached the stable 4.14 tree.
So my first suggestion is to try 4.14.12. Like you, I'm very wary
of bios updates (I've bricked enough hardware over the years).
