I guess you meant the previous one, Greg (oops msg was just my excuse,
nothing more), so here it is:

Finally I can name the first bad commit:

git bisect good
ad74b8649beaf1a22cf8641324e3321fa0269d16 is the first bad commit
commit ad74b8649beaf1a22cf8641324e3321fa0269d16

   usb: typec: ucsi: Preliminary support for alternate modes

   With UCSI the alternate modes, just like everything else
   related to USB Type-C connectors, are handled in firmware.
   The operating system can see the status and is allowed to
   request certain things, for example entering and exiting the
   modes, but the support for alternate modes is very limited
   in UCSI. The feature is also optional, which means that even
   when the platform supports alternate modes, the operating
   system may not be even made aware of them.

   UCSI does not support direct VDM reading or writing.
   Instead, alternate modes can be entered and exited using a
   single custom command which takes also an optional SVID
   specific configuration value as parameter. That means every
   supported alternate mode has to be handled separately in
   UCSI driver.

   This commit does not include support for any specific
   alternate mode. The discovered alternate modes are now
   registered, but binding a driver to an alternate mode will
   not be possible until support for that alternate mode is
   added to the UCSI driver.

The above bisect log was my initial try to find a commit which
introduced an issue. I came to
ad74b8649beaf1a22cf8641324e3321fa0269d16 eventually.
The latter bisect tries ended up at
12456e509be25d24fe479394852428517922d02a, which is merge, as I
understand, so the actual culprit is
ad74b8649beaf1a22cf8641324e3321fa0269d16 anyways.
PS: rc4 is still a no-go for me (just to re-iterate how severe the
problem is): not only error logs I see but I cannot log in as well,
system hangs up completely (haven't tried REISUB though).
