[SOLVED]Linux UDEV hangs at boot after update. linux-lts-4.14.78-1

Hang after
     [OK] Started udev Kernel Device Manager
Or black screen.

CPU: Intel Pentium CPU N3540 (Intel BYT-M)
MOTHERBOARD:  X553MA

PCI DEVICES:
    Atom processor Z36XXX/Z37XXX Series SoC (Host bridge)
    Atom processor Z36XXX/Z37XXX Series Grap (VGA compatible controller)
    Atom processor 3800 (SATA controller)
    Atom processor Z36XXX/Z37XXX (Encryption controller)
    Atom processor Z36XXX/Z37XXX (Audio device)
    Atom processor 3800 (PCI bridge)

ls /var/cache/pacman/pkg | grep linux

    linux-lts-headers-4.14.78-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
(So I don't have any earlier linux kernel versions to downgrade)

loglevel = 7

After little bit of googling I see - some new hardware/kernel/firmware issue maybe? How to resolve this problem? I want to downgrade my kernel, but you can see there is nothing downgrade to.  Any ideas?

Update:
In order to full downgrade system I tried to put in mirrorlist repo dated 2018/09/01.

 echo 'Server=https://archive.archlinux.org/repos/2018/09/01/$repo/os/$arch' > /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
 pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring  
 pacman -Syyuu

Have you tried the arch linux archive? Never used it myself, but it sounds handy.

Same issue, CPU: Intel Pentium CPU N3530 , same motherboard. Also, fresh ISO from 1.11.2018 won`t boot, while 1.10 and 1.09 boots fine.

The new message in journalctl since upgrade is:

 arch kernel: rtsx_pci: probe of 0000:03:00.0 failed with error -110 

loglevel = 7

[   13.839911] mei_txe 0000:00:1a.0: can't derive routing for PCI INT A
[   13.841541] mei_txe 0000:00:1a.0: PCI INT A: not connected
[   13.882639] input: PC Speaker as /devices/platform/pcspkr/input/input13
[   bla-bla-bla] cryptd: max_cpu_qlen set to 1000
[   bla-bla-bla] fb: switching to inteldrmfb from EFI VGA

This could be irrelevant to the issue, because I have the same log messages since September.

Solved for now by downgrading to linux-4.18.14, any version after that one has the issue.

PD1, you can do:

wget https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/l/linux/linux-4.18.14.arch1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
pacman -U linux-4.18.14.arch1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

If you need linux-lts, you can test different lts versions the same way.

As,  m-svo recommended I downgraded kernel to some earlier version 4.18.14-arch1-1-ARCH  and it seems worked to me.  But with linux-lts-4.14.63-1 i got

 [bla-bla-bla] r8169 0000:03:00.2: cant disable ASPM; OS doesn't have ASPM control 

. Still i ignored it and used 4.18.

PD1, looks like the issue is solved in linux-lts 4.19.16-1
So, if you prefer lts, probably it is safe to switch back.
