upower core dump

My kernel has been crashing occasionally and I see a upower core dump in the journal. I'm running arch with cinnamon desktop with the latest kernel

    Linux arjun-thinkpad 4.1.4-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Aug 3 21:30:37 UTC 2015 x86_64 GNU/Linux

on a Thinkpad T450s. My journal messages up to the crash are here.

Any ideas? I can logs or whatever else would be useful.

Re: upower core dump

Definitely a kernel bug, triggered by systemd's attempt to read some EFI stuff.

Check if there is some way to disable any EFI support in sytemd (I have no idea) or downgrade the kernel to any know good version. Maybe try linux-lts.

I think the linux-efi list may be the place to report such issue.
