The problem that I have seems much the same as from Feb 2019:

Yes, it's the same.
Try to login on a serial console, see the message:
bash: initialize_job_control: no job control in background: Bad file descriptor
This means that the bash process is not in the same process group as the
terminal, and nothing changes the situation after it's gotten SIGTTIN 16
times. Bash-4.4 ignored the situation, and just waited until it resolved
itself (which might never happen); bash-5.0 tries to avoid hangs and warns
you about what it's doing.
So your shell is not running in the same process group as the terminal,
and has no access to read from its controlling terminal.
When I press any key I get logged out. This is what happens when I press the
key:
# strace -p 19149
strace: Process 19149 attached
pselect6(1, [0], NULL, NULL, NULL, {[], 8}) = 1 (in [0])
read(0, 0x7ffc8237730f, 1) = -1 EIO (Input/output error)
And this is what happens. When you try to read from a background process,
the read returns -1/EIO since bash is ignoring SIGTTIN by this point.
