Dear Alex,

The situation is more than concerning and my frustration, as well as others, is 
growing.

There has been a hundred of reports on gitlab, I can find more on reddit, 
tech1level forum, phoronix forum, I got confirmation by some folks on Matrix 
that are staying in 6.1 and are starting to mock the amdgpu driver. I've seen 
features after features being merged in amdgpu yet people are laughing in 
forum, at how bugs are not fixed. On reddit, some users decided to go back on 
Windows because of it.

There has been 4 bisection attempts so far, that led to no result, and (I'm in 
part at fault here for having used an experimental filesystem with major 
version changes). There are people that managed to grasp debug infos before the 
timeout.

In two months, this significant issue will be a year old. 

I do not understand, how you guys are not hitting it/trying to bisect it. Are 
you not keeping your machine up for more than 30 sec.
With the immense spectrum of hardware concerned, I cannot believe that you guys 
are immune to this. And I cannot believe that you guys are letting this rot.

Right now, only a minority is managing to recover their session after a few 
minutes. Some people are able to get away with it by enabling the debug flag, 
but this only work for some people and there are no guarantees that it will 
last long. 

Please,
It's time to forget trying to pass the hotball and get a maintainer investigate 
and fix this before it gets too late. If we let it rot another year, no one 
will be able to bisect it because distros and hardware will make use of recent 
versions only.
