Sorry to hear about your regression. So since you seem to have an easy "reproducer" might you be able to bisect the problem? In this case since some major versions are involved it might be worth first trying to narrow the range a bit, by fetching kernel images built for Debian from the snaphots service where it is bumped to major upstream version. Then once you have arange from a 6.n to a 6.m version where things regress, to bisect it. Additionally it would be great if you can confirm if the problem still persissts in 7.0.4-1 to see if current upstream is still affected. Additionally please provide full kernel logs for such boot up to when the problem is triggered. Regards, Salvatore
