So I tried something similar with just kernel and ramdisk:

qemu-system-x86_64 \
-m 768 \
-machine pc-i440fx-2.1,accel=kvm,usb=off,dump-guest-core=off \
-nodefaults \
-kernel ~/bzImage \
-initrd ~/ramdisk.img \
-serial stdio \
-append "console=ttyS0 debug"

It boots just fine for me. Console seems to come up a bit faster if I
leave out the machine option. I tried this with qemu 8.0.3 on a m1 laptop
running linux in case the machine running the qemu host might make some
difference..

On dmesg I see 8250 come up:

[    0.671877] Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 4 ports, IRQ sharing enabled
[    0.680185] 00:03: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4, base_baud = 115200) is a 16550A

Still a minimal reproducable test case is needed.. Or do you have the
dmesg output of the failing boot?
