Mainline fails to boot - 6.17.1 works fine.
Same kernel on an older laptop without any nvme works just fine.

It seems to get stuck enumerating disks within the initramfs created by
dracut.

Subject to bisect verification, it may have started after commit

  e1b1d03ceec343362524318c076b110066ffe305

  Merge tag 'for-6.18/block-20250929' of 
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux

Machine is dell xps 9320 laptop (firmware 2.23.0) with nvme
partitioned:

    # lsblk -f
    NAME        FSTYPE      FSVER LABEL FSAVAIL FSUSE% MOUNTPOINTS    
    sr0
    nvme0n1
    ├─nvme0n1p1 vfat        FAT32 ESP   2.6G    12% /boot
    ├─nvme0n1p2 ext4        1.0   root  77.7G    42% / 
    └─nvme0n1p3 crypto_LUKS 2                          
      └─home    btrfs             home  1.3T    26% /opt
                                                    /home             



Will try do bisect over the weekend.
