>Description:
On Dell Inspiron 531s 5.0.1-RELEASE and 5.0_STABLE GENERIC kernels do not 
boot.It stops booting right after

[=== PARTIAL DMESG ===]
wsdisplay0 at vga0 kbdmux 1: console (80x25, vt100 emulation)
wsmux1: connecting to wsdisplay0
[=== PARTIAL DMESG ===]


It boots only if EHCI is disabled at userconf

[=== DMESG after disabling ehci ===]
(*) http://surapaneni.in/~prudhvi/dmesgs/5.0_STABLE.GENERIC.dmesg
[=== DMESG after disabling ehci ===]



>How-To-Repeat:
Try to boot 5.0.1-RELEASE iso's on Dell Inspiron 531s
>Fix:
Disabling ehci at the userconf prompt helped me boot.
But, i am not sure if this is the right fix.
