The default timeout is 90s, so it's far off.

I read a bit through systemd.  I don't see anything apart "alarm()" to
enforce a timeout.

"systemd.log_level=debug systemd.log_target=console" on the kernel
command line gives some more insight.  But this is a lot of output, so
requires serial console output.
