For me this is an EFI issue introduced in 4.9-rc1 - as described in
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=191801
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=191121

the EFI patch applied to 4.10-rc3 is now bootable again. I need to test
4.9.2 as well but am pretty sure this will work too.

I will note that not everyone having issues is using efi - so there
could well be more than one issue involved here.

regards,
