Stall warnings fire when a task or CPU waiting on an RCU grace period hasn't made forward progress in a certain amount of time. In both cases, many times the CPU yelling that it's stalled is a victim and not the culprit, i.e. a stalled task/CPU often indicates that something is broken elsewhere in the system that is preventing forward progress on _this_ task/CPU. Normally I would suggest bisecting, but given that v5.18 is broken for you that probably isn't an option. In the logs, are there any common patterns (beyond running KVM)? E.g. any functions that show up in stack traces in all instances? If nothing obvious jumps out, it might be worth uploading a pile of (compressed) traces somewhere so that others can poke through them; maybe someone will find the needle.
