I tested Linus’ master with commit 84e57d292203 (Merge tag 'exfat-for-6.2-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linkinjeon/exfat) and the error is still there. Reverting commit fixes the issue.

Good.
Could you test if the patch below works for you as well (on top of git master) ? I believe the commit f8bf19f7f311 (video: fbdev: matroxfb: set maxvram of vbG200eW to the same as vbG200 to avoid black screen) changed the wrong value...

Thank you. That worked.

If it works, can you send a patch?
Will do. If you have some explanation though, I could add to the commit message, that’d be great.
Kind regards,
