There is a new nvidia-370 driver that came just out recently. That does
no longer crash Cinnamon (yay!), but the cold boot issue persists.

Curiously, booting up to a failed boot and pressing reset to reboot when
it hangs (to hope it's a warm boot the second time) doesn't work, and
the second boot won't start up either.

Booting up the cold boot to Linux Mint 18 USB stick, and rebooting from
there does work, and the reboot gets to desktop with 3D acceleration
working properly (stress tested via Phoronix test suite, which gets good
scores).

Uninstalling nvidia drivers with "sudo apt-get purge nvidia-*" does fix
the system to be able do cold boots to desktop without problems.
