I haven't tried the current code drop yet, but I have a number of
machines that lock up during device probes because of something broken
in ACPI.  (I have reported this bug before.)  Disabling the ACPI timer
code makes these machines boot in 5.0.  That should be part of the
debugging procedure for any unexplained ACPI boot-time lockups.
