From all those links it seems quite a lot of users with Dell machines
are affected by this problem.

Thomas, turns out that bisection result was slightly wrong: a recheck
confirmed that the regression is actually caused by 45e34c8af58f23
("x86/smp: Put CPUs into INIT on shutdown if possible") [v6.5-rc1] of

Ciao, Thorsten
