Ok try this

Remove the 'quiet' add

irqpoll initcall_debug

The first one tries to catch and deal with hangs due to IRQ routing bugs
in the BIOS etc, the second will print a trace of each function called
during initialisation. It's not exciting to most people but as part of a
Fedora bug report it will let the Fedora kernel maintainers see which
initialiser hung the machine.
