I have attempted to fix this issue, the resulting patch is applied to the kernels below, could you test these and confirm they boot correctly. Kernels are at the link below:

Please report any testing back here.

Hey Andy,

Is it possible for you to combine the fix for this bug and https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1234413 in your private kernel. That way we can test it end to end. Please let us know.

Thanks,
Abhishek

We tested it. The storage issue is fixed. Please could you combine this fix with the display driver issue:
