I've applied all patches from the current version of stable-queue/queue-6.17 (commit id 11094dba5f8d0df69938f47f5edc5472ba790eca) applied on top of kernel 6.17.3, and compiled the result for x86_64 using GCC 15.2.1+r22+gc4e96a094636 and binutils 2.45+r29+g2b2e51a31ec7. The resulting kernel boots and runs without any discernible issues on various physical machines of mine (Ivy Bridge, Haswell, Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake) and in a Zen 2 VM and a bunch of Kaby Lake VMs.
