P.S.
As I see that this is a larger merge commit, with 5K+ lines changed, I don't think I can
bisect further to determine the culprit.
But I thought later that it would be interesting to see why my hardware triggered the freeze
and probably others did not, or someone would complain already.
Both of the boxes were AMD Ryzen: Ryzen 7 5700G and Ryzen 9 7950X.
FWIW, I am attaching both hardware listings and the config used, so anyone knowledgeable with
fbdev could possibly narrow down the search.
Best regards,
Mirsad Todorovac
