Are you good with me using kernel: 5.11.0-37-generic  or would you prefer I use a different kernel? The X555U is currently running Linux Mint 20.2 Cinnamon. FYI: I tried removing pci=noaer and it does boot now (without your patch). It has been a while since I tried removing pci=noaer and new kernels get installed all the time so not sure what kernel first started allowing it to boot without needing that line. However, there are still many errors on boot. dmesg --level=err,warn [    0.105337] x86/cpu: VMX (outside TXT) disabled by BIOS [    0.110761] MDS CPU bug present and SMT on, data leak possible.
