I know that bisecting drm-kmod is somewhat hard as you always need matching kernel code when we update it to use some new functionality in base linuxkpi but there is nothing that I can do about it. It might work and be quicker to only bisect the kernel with a stable/12 userland (no need to recompile) so I would start by testing a kernel from early november and same date for drm-kmod. Tijl since you also reported a build failure a few days/weeks ago for radeon can you report if your radeon card works ? (And which one it is).
