Thanks for this patch. Do you think this can be backported to LTS 5.17.y and 5.15.y, which are still buggy? It's not a big deal for me but others might profit. Background: The patch solves a regression from 5.17.1 to 5.17.2 or 5.15.32 and 5.15.33 I was about to report. On my Thinkpad T570, I got random "BUG", "Oops" or even panics when during booting with efifb and plymouthd (and then sometimes also problems when shutting down because). I had bisected the issue to commit 27599aacbaef. I could provide more info but I don't think it's necessary given that either aafa025c76dcc7d1a8c8f0bdefcbe4eb480b2f6a or your better patch now fixes the issue (I tested both, both work for me). Best, Tim Ruffing
