Bug#989010: linux-image-5.10.0-7-amd64: No display (post, grub, boot messages and desktop) after the upgrade to 5.10.38

I noticed that 5.10.46 reached unstable yesterday. If it was not for this
issue, I would have already upgraded, like I udually do when a kernel upgrade
comes out.
However, this time I had to check the config file for that -8 upgrade. And the
only difference between -7 and -8 is this version number. The build flags, and
I mean ALL of them, are EXACTLY the same.
So, since I have no other gpus to sacrifice, I won't risk it again. If anyone
with more experience can inform me about the worthy changes, please do. All I
can see in the changelog that might be related is this bit
- [x86] nmi_watchdog: Fix old-style NMI watchdog regression on old Intel
CPUs
If there is any more info on that change, please show me.
In other news, the gpu that half-survived (gt210) was tested on a last year's
ryzen pc (with windows though) and it boots and works fine. It was tested for
~1 hour with no issues.
