Definitely a good reading and here is where I see myself

https://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2020/12/msg00214.html

"There were surprisingly many users complaining that their hardware was 
no longer supported after the i386 baseline was raised from 586 to 686
in stretch."

The Geode I have is 586 with following enabled
flags: fpu de pse tsc msr cx8 pge cmov mmx mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow cpuid

But as noted since stretch the stock kernel does not work as it is 686.
The stock kernel did not work also before, because of the the board - the
chipset that requires legacy drivers combined with non legacy and the bios
that is very picky.

I must admit I do not recall raising bug or asking for advice
