We, ELRepo, can only deal with packaging errors or feature requests related to kernel config files. Any bug report must be filed upstream at bugzilla.kernel.org.

A workaround has been posted to the elrepo mailing list, quoted below:

Hi,

just got aware of bug https://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=668

We hit the same issue with kernel-lt 4.4.70 on an IBM x3690.
Maybe someone can update the bug with the information that
it can be mitigated with

1) Adding "mgag200.modeset=0" to kernel boot options
in /etc/default/grub

2) Creating a new grub config with grub2-mkconfig -o /etc/grub....cfg
Whatever config may exist (e.g grub2-efi.cfg).

Best regards.

Markus
