I am aware of it. There are some cases where it actually works. But it
is not being used here. The boot args are:

BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.19.0-rc1+ root=UUID=1dfec046-baf6-4f38-8b5e-a8f438a48038 ro rw quiet console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0 i915.enable_psr=1 initcall_debug log_buf_len=32M quiet splash console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 vt.handoff=7

I am curious if Todd sees this problem with 5.19-rc4 or later (the
kthread printers were removed).
