Title:
  With a -pae kernel, freeze during boot when wistron_btns loaded

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  With my Amilo M7400 and the recent Precise kernels (at least
  3.2.0-[10-12] I think), the system freezes during boot with the Ubuntu
  logo and colored dots on screen (the dots stop progressing), when I
  have wistron_btns enabled in /etc/modules. I need wistron_btns on this
  laptop for the wireless to work, which is why I'd like to have it
  enabled.

  This is unrelated to Bug #926007 which I also just filed: the
  wistron_btns freeze happens even when I'm using fbdev. (With -intel,
  the  #926007 panic and this freeze take turns in who gets to mess with
  me.)

  From what I've gathered so far, it seems that wistron_btns works fine
  if I manually modprobe it from my desktop, after booting without it.
  So that's a workaround at least.

  I can kill the freeze with Alt+PrtSc+REISUB. I'll provide any
  additional info needed, though I don't know how to produce logs when
  the system is frozen.
