Tested kernel 7.0.11‑rc1 on the following setups:
1. QEMU VM, Arch Linux x86_64 Booted successfully. No regressions, panics or oops observed.
2. Raspberry Pi 4B (4 GB), Raspberry Pi OS Lite 64‑bit Booted successfully. Observed a null‑pointer dereference oops in journalctl, which also occurs in the previous stable kernel (v7.0.10). So no regressions observed.
