I think I figured out one piece of the puzzle. Bisection keeps pointing
me at some -rcu merge commit, which kept throwing me off. Nor did it
help that reproduction is a bit flaky. However, I think there are 2
independent problems, but the manifestation of 1 problem triggers the
2nd problem:
1. problem: slowed forward progress (workqueue lockup / RCU stall reports)
2. problem: DEADLOCK which causes complete system lockup

Problem 2 can with reasonable confidence (5 trials) be fixed by reverting:
rcu: Don't invoke try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() with irqs disabled
At which point the system always boots to user space -- albeit with a
bunch of warnings still (attached). The supposed "good" version doesn't
end up with all those warnings deterministically, so I couldn't say if
the warnings are expected due to recent changes or not (Arm64 QEMU
emulation, 1 CPU, and lots of debugging tools on).
Does any of that make sense?
Thanks,
