Hi,

I suspect it may have to do with the 5th gen (Broadwell Desktop) only,
as they have a very special (and powerful) iGPU.
And maybe that's why the bug passed inadvertently so much time:
those CPUs didn't sell very well.

Yes, I have that package installed:

||/ Name            Version      Architecture Description
+++-===============-============-============-===========================================
ii  intel-microcode 3.20201110.1 amd64        Processor microcode
firmware for Intel CPUs

When I first upgraded to 5.7, I couldn't boot,
and my first thought was: this seems to be such a big bug,
so they probably have already noticed, and I didn't report it.
It's been more than half a year, kernel 5.9, and the bug is still there,
so I strongly suspect that the only affected CPUs are those with
Intel Iris Pro 6200 (there are only 4 models with that iGPU).

Thanks,

Alex
