@siya, does this actually make the apic features work? I tried the
latest fedora install (mate variation) from the website, as I don't
really know much about kernels and so on.. Sure it ran without the
errors after the initial installation, but it was still in the same
state as ubuntu - hanging on suspend, extra keys not working, and even
the touchpad was reduced to basic functionality, while in ubuntu it
worked as advanced, even though it's set to "basic" in the BIOS. I
didn't bother checking power drain and so on since if these are going to
be broken anyways I'd rather use ubuntu..

Title:
  Acer Aspire A315 IOAPIC failure on Ubuntu 18.04, kernel hangs, can't
  load, kernel freeze  (AMD Ryzen 5/Radeon/Raven) / AMDGPU Hybrid crash

Status in amd:
  Fix Released
Status in Linux:
  Incomplete
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  CPU: Ryzen 5 2500U
  VGA: Radeon 535
  Notebook: Acer Aspire A315

  This is a brand new notebook on the market with Ryzen 5/Radeon. 
  The default kernel of Ubuntu(18.04) hangs at loading with message:

  tsc: Refined TSC clocksource calibration: 1996.250 MHz
  clocksource: tsc: mask: 0xffffffffffffffff max_cycles: (...), max_idle_ns: 
(...) 
  Soft lockup

  Using pci=noacpi kernel parameter kernel loads without any problem but
  my notebook produces more heat than on Win10. If I know right Acer
  notebooks need ACPI to the correct power management.

  The same thing happens on mainline 4.17,4.18rc1-2.
  BIOS upgrade to the latest version: 1.08 hasn't helped

  This problem has been reported upstream:
  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200087

  The latest correctly working kernel was 4.13.* but the heat problem
  was present with this too.
