Bug#1057967: linux-image-6.1.0-15-amd64 renders my physical bookworm/gnome computer largely unusable
Control: affects -1 + src:broadcom-sta linux-image-6.1.0-15-amd64
@other affected users: What wifi drivers are you using, and do they
taint your kernel?

Is it syslog that might help you better, or any other log? Just let me
know please. I'd love to help figure this out with mutual support.

*drumroll* Now this comes as a surprise to me.
debian-live-12.4.0-amd64-gnome displays none of the bad behavior, even
when actively using wifi. Apart from firmware, there's no non-free
involved in debian-live.
So could it be just some local configuration choice of mine, and of all
the other affected users? Some years-old but possibly now poor choice of
drivers/firmware maybe? I faintly remember having tried a free driver on
this card at least two debian releases ago, but it worked so bad I had
to switch to a non-free one:
https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/broadcom-sta-dkms
Which since has been upgraded with each debian release.
Another Test: My old hardware has a physical RF kill switch. So I booted
up 6.1.0-15 with it turned off: *drumroll* Works fine. So wifi seems to
be singled out as the culprit in my case. (or possibly bluetooth, but I
strongly doubt)
See attachments regarding my wifi. Shame on me, if anyone ever
suggested: "Never file a bug against a tainted kernel", because I did.
But maybe it was good to do so. Because this bug is still very relevant,
as it affects not only me, but renders multiple people's computers
practically unusable when upgrading to 6.1.0-15. Not like "wifi gone
bad", but "computer gone bad". This shouldn't happen within a stable
debian release IMHO, and thus justifies some fairly high level of
severity, IMHO. "critical", IDK. You own this bug, you decide.
Now I conclude that 6.1.0-15 not only breaks src:broadcom-sta, but also
vice versa. Are there any other wifi drivers affected?

Now that sounds to me like exactly what caused this. Good to know that
upstream has already reverted this regression. Please let me know what
else to test or contribute, so that we can look forward to a debian
stable 6.1 kernel without this bug.
@Salvatore: Thanks a ton for your excellent work. Very much appreciated.
