For the Ryzen 2400G, could you please try with:
- 1 event at a time
- Not more than 8 events (On your system, it has 2 banks x 4 counters/bank.
I am trying to see if this issue might be related to the counters multiplexing).

Thanks,
Suravee

Title:
  AMD-Vi: Unable to read/write to IOMMU perf counter

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  This boot warning (concealed by grub not taking over the fbcon console
  on a solo installation but always present on a multi-boot) has been
  bothering Linux users of AMD Ryzen machines for some time.

  The problem is currently under discussion at kernel level
  <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201753>.

  One solution proposed by Suravee Suthikulpanit
  <[email protected]>  <https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/2/8/486>
  works but inserts a boot-up delay of (at least) 100 msec. A second
  option by Alexander Monakov <[email protected]>
  <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201753> also works but
  inserts no delay and more-or-less just moves one line of code.

  I've tried both solutions with kernel rebuilds for both Breezy kernel
  5.8.18 and Hirsute kernel 5.10.11 and both work on my AMD Ryzen 2400G.
  Could I encourage your kernel experts to evaluate the situation (I
  think SuSE folk already are).

  My suggestion (as a humble user :-) ) would be to fold Alex's simple
  patch into your own list of kernel tweeks and get the correction out
  with the upcoming Hirsute release.

  Best regards and all respect!
