Unable to boot with 6.2.2.artix1-1

Hello,

I am unable to boot with kernel 6.2.2.artix1-1 on my Thinkpad T14 AMD Gen 2.

There is limited information I can provide as the laptop just reboots when it tries to load the image (i.e. blank screen then reboot, no errors logged to console). I do use secure boot and sbupdate to generate unified kernel images however this doesn't seem to be the issue, 6.1.14.hardened1-1 still boots fine. Changing the kernel log level does not produce any additional output. I also use acpi_call-dkms to install that module for both kernels, however there are no errors during module reinstallation and switching to the regular acpi_call package made no difference.

Just in case though here's what my sbupdate.conf looks like https://privatebin.net/?2b06ceb913150b5d#7EjJpCYvfwK3spkBJtCxJ6ECHnRFjdoEp6aVX9hYo98A

mkinitcpio.conf

dkms.conf for acpi_call-dkms

At this point I'm thinking I just need to downgrade and wait for another update, but if anyone has any suggestions I'd appreciate it.

Exact same issue and setup on my Framework laptop.
The generated backup of 6.1.12 and the manually downgraded 6.1.8 both work.

This is most probably an upstream kernel bug, please downgrade and wait for the next release.
