I have retested the same kernel (v4.9 based) as before and now it
boots fine including rtc-efi device registration (it was crashing
there):

 rtc-efi rtc-efi: rtc core: registered rtc-efi as rtc0

There could be a difference in firmware and mem setup, though I also
downgraded the firmware to test it, but can't reproduce it anymore. I
could reliable trigger the crash the first time.

FTR the oops.
