<pre>Bing - HDMI audio is probably a source of problem.
I tried to add radeon.audio=0. I tested this before already, but I tried this
time again with 4.9-rc7. No bug in console appeared, but kernel lock down
(<Alt>-<SysRq>-B don't worked). I tried I think 3-times - no OOPS on console,
only hang. Then I get idea to look into BIOS if HDMI audio is enabled there and
really, HDMI was disabled completely. I enable HDMI in the BIOS and disable
HDMI audio only and system started normaly. I tried combinations:
BIOS BIOS radeon.audio=0
HDMI HDMI audio
----------------------------------------------------------------
0 - no OOPS
0 - yes OOPS
yes yes no OOPS
yes yes yes OOPS
yes no no OK
So to avoid problems with the radeon driver the HDMI audio must be disabled in
BIOS and it is possible only if the HDMI connector is enabled, because
otherwise the option (HDMI audio) is greyed.
I can't remember if I had this setting in the past, maybe yes. Disabled HDMI
may be the result of BIOS "Load system default", because other flaws on this
mobo with networking some time ago (.</pre>
