Yes, this is an OLED panel. But I don't believe it's userspace writing
anything at this point in the boot; before the bisected commit,
brightness was set to 32 (out of max 255) on this hardware when I
checked from the initramfs rescue shell. At the bisected commit, it's 0
(out of max 255).

There is another commit that fixes the behavior that is probably missing.

Which commit is that? It's not in 6.15.7?

No; it's not currently backported. Assuming it helps your issue I think it's a good argument to backport.
