Hey,
My old but still kicking laptop is unable to boot with the last GRUB upgrade (2.12.r359). /boot is on the same ext4/LUKS filesystem as /, and this is an UEFI boot. I have no error message, the system just freezes with "Slot 0 opened" and no error message.
Downgrading to 2.12.r292 makes it boot again. I'm always running grub-install and grub-mkconfig after grub upgrades or downgrades.
Any idea?

There was another thread about this:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=308079
In two cases the problem was due to having two copies of grub64.efi on the same machine. You could check if you have two copies of grub64.efi on your machine.

Thanks for the answer! I did have multiple versions of grub64.efi ; however it still doesn't work after I deleted everything in /boot/efi/EFI and reinstalled GRUB properly (now it only has a single grub64.efi, and a single entry listed by efibootmgr).
I will check some of the options mentioned in the thread, just in case.

Using --disable-shim-lock didn't help, so for now I'll stick to the older version. I have an other machine that has the same issues as my laptop (old cheap ultrabook that I'm sometimes using when traveling), but my homeserver had no trouble.

For those coming here, issue persists with 2.12.r418.

I too have the same problem with Asus T100HA
and I solved it temporarily by downgrading to 2.12.r292.
I tried also versions 2.12.r418 and 2.12.r359, but they don't work.
