chiming in here as I'm experiencing what looks like the exact same issue, also on a Lenovo Z13 notebook, also on Arch:

Merge branch 'for-6.3/hid-bpf' into for-linus
Hmm, seems like bad bisect (bisected to HID-BPF which IMO isn't related to amd_sfh). Can you repeat the bisection?
I'm digging further. That merge is what git bisect ended at, but admittedly my git skills and especially with a large codebase aren't too advanced. While at 904e28c6de083fa4834cdbd0026470ddc30676fc, git show only shows the diff for tools/testing/selftests/Makefile which can't really be the culprit. However, git diff @~..@ has changes in drivers/hid/amd-sfh-hid/Kconfig (seems innocuous, too), but also some changes to drivers/hid/hid-core.c. Nothing obvious either, but at least it's not too far from the trace.
Well, amd_sfh afaics apparently interacts with HID (see trace earlier in the thread), so it's not that far away. But it's a merge commit, which is possible, but doesn't happen every day. So a recheck might really be a good idea.
I will recheck some more, the Oops only happens with roughly 30 % chance during boot. When it doesn't, there seem to be no other issues until the next boot either. I made sure to reboot a few times after each bisect step, will look deeper into the area.
Anyway, tl;dr:
A: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_post Q: Were do I find info about this thing called top-posting?
[...]
BTW, I'm not sure if this really is helpful. Teaching this to upcoming kernel developers is definitely worth it, but I wonder if pushing this on all reporters might do more harm than good. I also wonder if asking them a bit more kindly might be wiser (e.g. instead of "Anyway, tl;dr:" something like "BTW, please do not top-post:" or something like that maybe).
Thanks, and I agree in general. However, my case was in fact even worse :-) I'm totally aware of the badness of top-posting. It happened because I had a draft of the reply. Set In-Reply-To from the link in the wev archive and pasted the previous message from there. Couple days later, I just pasted the result on top and disregarded the existing text.
