Thanks for the offer :)

Today I finally had time to try it out ... to find I can no longer
reproduce it. At least not reliably. I've seen the error message once
with 6.11-rc1 today, but not since. When I now boot 6.11-rc1, I do not
see it and I've rebooted several times.

I did upgrade the BIOS to a new (beta) version since my previous
attempts, which may play a factor? But that seems like a minor change.
So it could be that my previous bisect operation wasn't reliable either.

The issue wasn't a big deal to begin with but mostly interesting to
enhance my git bisect skills. But now that I can't reliably reproduce
the issue, that makes even that moot.

So I'm hereby stopping my attempts to bisect this issue.

Cheers,
  Diederik
