Package: grub-common
Version: 2.02-2ubuntu1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Some changes have been made in upcoming Intel silicon that will prevent GRUB2
from booting on Debian.  The 8254 clock is gated meaning when GRUB2 calibrates
it's time source it hangs indefinitely.

This issue has been fixed upstream by Intel.

Would you please consider to adopt this fix in Debian?

Thanks,
