I eventually got this booting (for some reason it was causing LD to SEGV
trying to link it for a while...) and sadly it works fine on my laptop. Hmm.

Did you manage to try again with KASAN?

It might also be worth taking the IOMMU out of the equation, since that
interfaces differently with SWIOTLB and I couldn't figure out the code path
from the log you provided. What happens if you boot with "amd_iommu=off
swiotlb=force"?

(although word of warning here: i915 dies horribly on my laptop if I pass
swiotlb=force, even with the distro 5.10 kernel)
