This patch landed recently in linux-next as commit 95f7a26191de 
("squashfs: implement readahead"). I've noticed that it causes serious 
issues on my test systems (various ARM 32bit and 64bit based boards). 
The easiest way to observe is udev timeout 'waiting for /dev to be fully 
populated' and prolonged booting time. I'm using squashfs for deploying 
kernel modules via initrd. Reverting aeefca9dfae7 & 95f7a26191deon on 
top of the next-20220603 fixes the issue.

Let me know how I can help debugging this issue. There is no hurry 
though, because the next week I will be on holidays.
