    Dear Maintainer,

    I have a Lenovo IdeaPad 1 15ADA7, and am not able to boot from the EMMC starting with this kernel. I'm including a link from the Be My Eyes app that shows the boot error. I used this app to get the error because I'm blind,
    and cannot read the boot screen independently. https://share.bemyeyes.com/chat/kE3kuHs4c3

    * What led up to the situation?
    Booting the machine.
    * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
    ineffective)?
    I restored a btrfs snapshot with  6.12.30-amd64 to get the machine running again.
    * What was the outcome of this action?
    I'm not able to update the system. If I do, it won't boot.
    * What outcome did you expect instead?
    The system should boot after an update.

    I think this is the same as the already reported #1107979.

    Would you be able to bisect the changes between 6.12.30 upstream and
    6.12.32 to identify the offending commit?

    Regards,
    Salvatore

    Additionally, please do test as well the kernel from experimental (6.15.2-1~exp1 and soonish 6.15.3-1~exp1) to see if the problem
    persists there as well.

    I just tested 6.15.2-1~exp1, and as far as I can tell, got the same
    error.

    I just tried 6.15.3-1~exp1 and got the same error.
    Am I correct in assuming that the error won't show up in any logs with more information?
    I can chroot into the installed system from a Gnome live image if needed.

    Once you drop into the initramfs shell, can you run dmesg to get the
    kernel messages printed, so we might see something more interesting?

    Given it is as well an issue in 6.15.3 based kernel it might now be
    worth to bring this already to upstream attention (I have not found
    yet a similar report though, which is bit surprising).

    Additionally to get the dmesg output printed, as this might become
    difficult to get that out to us, two more things:

    If you are using quiet kernel parameter, rmeote it so it less quiet.

    Secondly it might be a try to use the netconsole if we get far enough. https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/networking/netconsole.html

    Parallel to those questions, I will ask the linux-mmc list if
    something rings a bell with the changes between 6.12.30..6.12.32.

    Salvatore
