So, the situation is:
- After update to 4.17.8 Linux failed to load the needed modules.

- After downgrading *only* the kernel module to 4.17.2 the system is working again.

In Arch Linux, kernel updates blow away the old modules so you cannot load modules anymore. Downgrading will just revert that situation and it does not need internet: pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/linux-version.pkg.tar.xz should do it. ProTip: reboot after kernel updates.

TBH this email thread was confusing.
