I too am unable to boot the newer kernels from at least 4.8.4 but I
have a different failure than what you are describing. I have a
Lenovo T440p and an older desktop machine with an Intel core 2 duo
processor, both fail in the same manner.
When the system comes up the system goes into a hibernation mode, if I
bring it out of hibernation it'll continue the boot and then go into
hibernation again, eventually after 4 or 5 hibernation cycles I can
finally get the machine to complete the boot cycle and allow me to log
in, at this point the system appears to work properly.
I have an HP laptop that wont boot with the 4.8 kernel. Boots fine on
4.7 kernels. Took me a bit to figure out it was a problem with the
kernel. Mine just hangs when the kernel should load with a white dot in
the upper left-hand corner of the screen.
