can you boot with the option initcall_debug and see what the last line that gets dumped says (if different to above?) If cfq was broken I'd expect a more widespread problem, so it's likely that it's silently blowing up in whatever gets initialised after cfq.
Created attachment 140978 [details] hanged boot with initcall_debug Here is a picture from such hang with 2.6.18-1.2239.fc5. A kernel on an FC6 installer is doing that too. It is actually quite possible that this is the same as bug 212172 (and maybe a fixed BIOS, if available, is an answer).
some things to try.. pci=nommconf pci=nomsi
