Hello,
For some reason 4.11-rc8 makes my Dell Inspiron 5558 crash. The
problem is very random and I don't know how to reproduce it.
That said, this only started happening with 4.11-rc8 and I've been
using 4.11 since rc3 and it didn't happen at all with the previous
RCs.
Not sure how I could debug this, there is nothing in the logs either.
I'm on Arch Linux x86_64.
Thanks,
Diego

Not sure if "crash" is the best way to describe it, but when I'm using
i3 and browsing X will freeze and I won't be able to do anything, Num
Lock won't work either.
I can only do a hard reset at that point.

BTW, I should specify that this issue has nothing to do with the other
issue I had:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/3/8/603
That issue was with suspend/resume and it's fixed.
This issue I have now is with normal usage (S0) and not with suspend/resume.
In this case, everything freezes, X, etc. and only a hard reboot
works, I'm not sure I can git-bisect the problem also because it's
hard to reproduce and very random.
I'll see if the final 4.11 release fixes it and report back.
