I have built last couple of kernels including 6.3-rc1+ w your patch.
(I'm late two weeks w testing, but those were rather busy two weeks.)
I see what it is meant to do, but I am unsure of how to test whether it works.
Being the unfaithful Thomas, I always prefer to test rather to just assume it
is OK.
Is this OK output you expected to see in syslog?

NOTE: Maybe I should emphasise that this is not seen in either dmesg or kernel console.
I have just checked, and DEVRES lines are only in /var/log/messages (on AlmaLinux 8.7, CentOS fork).
As you must have guessed yourself already, this will frustrate debugging past the lifetime of rsyslog process.
Also, there is no way known to me to access dmesg log from the previous kernel run.
Thanks,
Mirsad
