I cannot reproduce a hung task there either on that kernel.

I see this:

sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/virtual/misc/test_firmware/nope-test-firmware.bin'

But these are expected as the selftests tries silly things to ensure
they are not allowed.

If you can reproduce it there, it would be appreciated if you look underneath
the hood a bit, or share anything glaring and obvious which may help
reproduce this.
