AMD 7900 XTX crash on boot

I noticed this started roughly on the 20240220 image but I've been tracking down a crash when booting bazzite. I'm not sure if this is operator error and I missed a notice (I have the signing keys loaded so I think i'm basically good to go up to that point.) I'm attaching my kernel log that is showing several modules not loading and I believe these are contributing to the desktop not loading on every boot. Sometimes I get lucky and get a desktop, but today it seems to have come to a head with this build and I have had to roll back to the last pinned version I have on hand which was pre signed images.

Kernel log from trying to boot the 20240224 image: https://gist.github.com/lazypower/abb139513da537584304e4dc4e5bff0c Does anything stand out here that I'm not immediately seeing? Thanks!

Solution:

After booting the pinned image, I restarted the system and tried to load the 20240224 image and lo-and-behold its working. Really odd heisenbug that I'm fairly certain is something specific to my setup. I have a feeling its related to a "You might be running a broken bios" message I've seen in a couple of the logs. I'll post the follow up kernel boot in the gist link above but mark this message as resolution pending any further ideas to check into aside from a bios update. Thanks in advance for looking....
