Hi Alexey, Michael
Sorry for the late reply, but I didnt have access to this large system.
This weekend, I did get access and tested with the patch. However it didn't
help much, system is still stuck at dracut with similar message except the
trace.
However this patch
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230418204401.13168-1-gbatra@linux.vnet.ibm.com/
from Gaurav Batra does solve this issue.
