Bug#1026870:
> If you're indeed testing this inside VirtualBox, do look whether there's an update for that (too).
I am testing on bare metal.
> I also noticed several ACPI errors. I don't know if that's on the host or also
inside VirtualBox, but it may be worth looking into that. And also
comparing that with the 'old' kernel which did perform 'properly'.
The old kernel also logs these messages.
As for the 6.1.y series kernel, the installation fails on my machine:

After manually installing the headers package, the installation
succeeded. I booted into the new kernel and its performance matches
the old working kernel (6.0.8), meaning that the regression seems to
have been fixed.
