I tried installing the above kernel, and had a number of strange issues
when booting.  The first time booting, the desktop resolution was
restricted to 720x400.

eb 24 13:23:57 msi kernel: radeon 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware load for 
radeon/RV710_pfp.bin failed with error -2

Feb 24 13:23:57 msi kernel: radeon: probe of 0000:02:00.0 failed with error -2

I also saw errors reported related to the wifi driver:

However, on that first boot, wifi did appear to work.  It looks like the
driver and btcoexist did get loaded.

lsmod | grep bt
btcoexist             249856  1 rtl8821ae
rtlwifi               114688  3 rtl_pci,rtl8821ae,btcoexist
btusb                  57344  0
btrtl                  24576  1 btusb
btbcm                  20480  1 btusb
btintel                40960  1 btusb
btmtk                  16384  1 btusb
bluetooth             774144  13 btrtl,btmtk,btintel,btbcm,bnep,btusb


Then after rebooting once, the rtl8821ae driver would not load anymore.  So 
then I tried going back to the 6.8 kernel, and the device was no longer 
detected by the system.  Once I figured that out, I shut the power to the 
system for a few minutes and it the device appeared again.

So there is a possibility here that the wifi card itself has some issues
(unless there's some software switch to turn off that it's remembering
between reboots).

Either way, I'm not sure where to go from here.  Loading the 5.17 kernel
makes the system almost unusable.  And I don't know how this will help
debug the issue.  Since even during normal operation I cannot reliably
reproduce the problem with a certain action, I'm not sure it will be
possible to get to the bottom of this.

Is there anything I can set up and have running so that I know more
about what's going on right before the system freezes?
