Hi Linus,

My testlab kernel devel server isn't booting correctly on v6.11 branches 
(e.g. net-next at 6.11.0-rc5)
I just confirmed this also happens on your tree tag: v6.11-rc7.

The symptom/issue is that harddisk dev names (e.g /dev/sda, /dev/sdb, 
/dev/sdc) gets reordered.  I switched /etc/fstab to use UUID's instead 
(which boots on v6.10) but on 6.11 it still cannot mount harddisks and 
doesn't fully boot.

E.g. errors:
   systemd[1]: Expecting device 
dev-disk-by\x2duuid-0c2b348d\x2de013\x2d482b\x2da91c\x2d029640ec427a.device 
- /dev/disk/by-uuid/0c2b348d-e013-482b-a91c-029640ec42
7a...
   [DEPEND] Dependency failed for var-lib.mount - /var/lib.
   [...]

dev-d…499e46-b40d-4067-afd4-5f6ad09fcff2.
   [DEPEND] Dependency failed for boot.mount - /boot.

That corresponds to fstab's:
  - UUID=8b499e46-b40d-4067-afd4-5f6ad09fcff2 /boot     xfs defaults 0 0
  - UUID=0c2b348d-e013-482b-a91c-029640ec427a /var/lib/ xfs defaults 0 0

It looks like disk controller initialization happens in *parallel* on
these newer kernels as dmesg shows init printk's overlapping:

Perhaps this could be a hint to what changed?

Any hints what commit I should try to test revert?
Or good starting point for bisecting?
