It used to be possible to export Hyper-V VM settings as XML, but
apparently that option has been removed in Win2016/Win10, in favor of
their own proprietary binary .vmcx format...

Also, maybe it matters what else Hyper-V is doing. I've installed both
WSL and WSA, and Windows Defender is using Core Isolation Memory
Integrity. I have also enabled support for nested virtualisation in the
Host/Network Switch, but not in that VM.

Anyway, I just created two new VMs (one of each generation) with no hard
disk and everything else default, added a DVD drive to the SCSI
controller of Gen2 (which Gen1 already had on its IDE controller),
disabled Secure Boot on Gen2 and added a second vCPU to Gen1 (which Gen2
already had).

Afterwards, Gen2's dmidecode looks like the summary you posted, and Gen1
reproduces the issue.

Very interesting that Gen2 boots 32-bit Linux better than Gen1 (there is
a delay during hardware autoconfigruation (systemd-udevd) for about 30
seconds when booting Gen2 which I did not investigate yet), despite the
documentation claiming not to use Gen2 for any 32-bit Host OSes.

So I assume this only applies to crappy OSes that directly couple their
bitness to the bitness of the UEFI firmware.

To be fair, the live media I'm using uses Grub's "non-compliant" Linux
loader that bypasses the kernel's EFI stub. When trying with Grub's
"linuxefi" loader, Linux does not boot either, as expected. (On the Gen1
VM, the panic happens regardless whether I use grub's linux16 or linux
loader, and also with SYSLINUX/ISOLINUX loader).

All my tests were performed with a single (Gen1) VM, and the only
setting I changed was the number of vCPUs.
