As stated in the bug ticket linked above, this commit:
https://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu-bionic.git/commit/kernel/module.c?h=Ubuntu-4.15.0-177.186&id=3879f4364139acb2bd3932e6a15994f109c49d6b

causes issues on hardware where the intel_lpss driver tries to load the intel idma driver, because this commit:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/drivers/mfd/intel-lpss.c?id=569fac74627cc332a2097a7a4bfdc654b8e7f273

has not been backported to the 4.15 kernel.

I propose backporting this commit to the 4.15 kernel ASAP to fix the issue.
