Let me look after it in the weekend and let's see whether we can unbreak
it. I don't think there is really a big issue. The last time we had a
similar issue was the regression introduced by 974b9b2c68f3 which got fixed
with the simple fix in bd05220c7be3.

It's probably similarly trivial to fix the current regression.

Just for reference, this specific bug does not seem to be universal, but possibly only applies to a specific configuration. I have observed no problems with 6.1 on my rx 2800 i2 and just booted 6.2 with no issues. Please feel free to try out my kernel config here: https://dpaste.com/43CACUUG8.txt

A possible guess is initramfs-related, as according to your logs on the Debian ML the hang happens shortly after initramfs unpacking, and I do not use an initramfs.
