[6.3][regression] after commit 7170b7ed6acbde523c5d362c8978c60df4c30f30 my system stuck in initramfs forever

[Mikhail Gavrilov]

Hi,
new kernel release cycle returning with new bugs
Today my system got stuck in initramfs environment after updating to
commit d2980d8d826554fa6981d621e569a453787472f8.

I still do not understand how to configure the network inside the
initramfs environment to grab the logs.
Since an attempt to rebuild the initramfs with all modules (dracut
--no-hostonly --force) leads to the stuck initramfs environment and
impossible entering into initramfs console.

But I can bisect the problem and bisection blames this commit:

❯ git bisect good
7170b7ed6acbde523c5d362c8978c60df4c30f30 is the first bad commit

    kunit: Add "hooks" to call into KUnit when it's built as a module

    KUnit has several macros and functions intended for use from non-test
    code. These hooks, currently the kunit_get_current_test() and
    kunit_fail_current_test() macros, didn't work when CONFIG_KUNIT=m.

    In order to support this case, the required functions and static data
    need to be available unconditionally, even when KUnit itself is not
    built-in. The new 'hooks.c' file is therefore always included, and has
    both the static key required for kunit_get_current_test(), and a table
    of function pointers in struct kunit_hooks_table. This is filled in with
    the real implementations by kunit_install_hooks(), which is kept in
    hooks-impl.h and called when the kunit module is loaded.

    This can  be extended for future features which require similar
    "hook" behaviour, such as static stubs, by simply adding new entries to
    the struct, and the appropriate code to set them.

    Fixed white-space errors during commit:
