[SOLVED] System hangs on indefinetly on reboot

When I reboot, my laptop hangs until I turn it off manually pressing the power off button.

The message:

watchdog did not stop!

used to appear both in shutdown and reboot, until I managed to make it disappear blacklisting the module. I also used the

nowatchdog

and

nmi_watchdog=0

parameters in grub, and then, the message stops appearing when rebooting, but the system still hangs on. There is no error message, the screen is turned off and I can't do anything.

This happens only when I reboot, by any method, for example:

• running systemctl reboot or reboot from a terminal

• choosing the shutdown option in the WM menu (which equals to systemctl reboot)

• exiting to LightDM and choosing the reboot option from there

I already tried some things:

• updated the system

• booted with linux kernel (Usually, I use linux-hardened)

Here is the last boot log (full): https://pastebin.com/Su9t999V
And here is a cleaner log, with errors only: https://pastebin.com/83Jx4QKd

UPDATE: Actually, the error was in the reboot=bios parameter in GRUB. It made my system hang. I guess I'd use it for testing something and forgot to remove it afterwards.
