No problem, attached please find the v6.1.92 dmesg and also the v6.9.3 .config and dmesg.

I stripped down the v6.9.3 .config a bit (to ease 'make oldconfig' for older kernels) from my originally posted v6.8.9 .config and used that as a starting point for v6.6.32 and v6.1.92.

Also I started a git bisect. Let's see if I get something meaningful out of this...

Regards,
Erhard
