    fortunately with the patch applied your box works now (so does mine) so
    the bug appears to be fixed.

    early-bootup debugging was never easy, and breakage there doesnt happen
    all that often. Hopefully this was the last one related to remove-BKL.

    (If such a early-bootup lockup happens in the future then you sure could
    temporarily unplug the ups serial connection and use that as the serial
    console - for the narrow and temporary purpose of debugging that
    boot-time hang.)
