It will be interesting to see if the checkra1n team can get this to work on the A11 SoC. They'll have to do something, since the new iOS betas now check the "Boot Progress" Register. As this check is done by the SEP core, bar an exploit, the system can refuse to decrypt the user's data partition.
I'm fairly sure this bug is related to how the SEP handles it's 64 bit numbers... so it might not be exploitable on newer chipsets. IIRC the iPhone X has an ARMv8 SEP vs Cortex-A7 in earlier models.
