Shutdown Failure for MinisForum UM590

Greetings all,

Another shutdown issue here.  I installed Arch next to the Windows 11 that came already installed on a Minisforum UM590.  Arch fails to shutdown completely about one-third to half of the time.  I should note that this never happens either with Windows 11 or if booted from a USB flash drive.  When Arch shuts down properly shutdown takes no more than a few seconds and typically no text appears on the screen.  When Arch fails to shutdown properly relevant messages appear on the screen and progress slowly over half an hour or so to the final shutdown message.  However, the unit doesn't really ever shutdown.  I have to hold the power button for a number of seconds for complete shutdown to occur.  Similarly, when reboot fails, again around a third to half of the time, after quite a number of minutes the final text I see on the screen is "rebooting" but in fact no reboot ever happens, even if the computer is left alone for a couple of hours.  I have to again hold the power button to shutdown.

Some links to a few pastebins that should be good for a week of three cases of

journalctl -r -b 1

.  I thought because of the amount of code pastebins might work better than trying to put in the message body.

Recent failed reboot attempt
Failed shutdown attempt
An example of a normal shutdown

If anyone has any clue as to what is going on I'd be most appreciative as I'd like to start using this computer without worries about whether it will shutdown or not.

Re: Shutdown Failure for MinisForum UM590

No one came forth to help me on this but I did come up with a sort of fix, so thought I'd post it in case anyone else has this particular problem. 
Adding

acpi=noirq

to the line in /etc/default/grub beginning with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT as in

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="loglevel=3 quiet acpi=noirq"

and then executing

grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

in the terminal has eliminated the shutdown problem.
It's been a month and so far the shutdown problem has not repeated.  I'm not happy enough to call this a solution so I won't mark this as solved.  In fact I'm concerned there may be some adverse effects from doing it this way, but I haven't noticed anything so far.  If anyone has any insights on this I'm all ears.
A BIOS upgrade would be a happier fix for me, but on researching I'm advised not to upgrade the bios on Minisforum computers unless instructed to by Minisforum support.
So for now this is how the issue stands.

Re: Shutdown Failure for MinisForum UM590

Really, really thank for for the tip.

I have a UM560 and it worked very fine all the months before, till the new lts kernel kicked in. Then I had shutdown and reboot problems. I was so desperate by thinking just to setup whole installation again. You saved my day.
