Bisection between v5.16 and v5.17-rc1 points to 180dccb0dba4f5e84a4a70c1be1d34cbb6528b32 as the culprit, which is corroborated by reverting that commit in v5.17-rc1 and booting as rapidly as before.
Now you know the culprit, it looks like several other people ran into this. Does this fix help? https://lore.kernel.org/all/1643040870.3bwvk3sis4.none@localhost/ It is commit 10825410b956dc1e ("blk-mq: Fix wrong wakeup batch configuration which will cause hang") in v5.17-rc2.
