Hmm, weird then. I can confirm that v6.8.1 doesn't _always_ boot. It
boots some times but still fails a majority of times. There is a
2 out of 10 chance that v6.8.1 will not boot. If you keep rebooting
enough times, you might get it to boot but the next boot is
likely to be borked. :(

That said, v6.8.2 might still have the same issue, but the probably of a
failed boot might be _lesser_ than v6.8.1 (from what I saw). I will
verify that behaviour sometime tomorrow or day after tomorrow.

I thought so too. So I built a vanilla kernel from the release tarball
of v6.8.1, using GCC + arm64 defconfig. I also tried using LLVM just in
case but noticed the same result.
