This appears to be caused by having "retbleed=stuff" on the kernel command line. Up to 6.2.9 it never made any problems.
Cheers.

I got a kernel panic on 6.2.9 even earlier than that, and I don't have retbleed parameters on my kernel command line.
My bootloader kernel command line is: idewait=10 plymouth.enable=0 splash quiet showopts nvidia-drm.modeset=1 elevator=cfq
I'm also not booting from NVMe but from a SATA SDD.
Crash details: ----- Kernel Panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,5) This is partition 5 of sda. Kernel should not even attempt to mount it as root. Is initrd present and not corrupted? Any errors from grub about loading initrd?
No, not that I can see. /dev/sda5 is the root partition (dev/sda1 is /boot). I think this is still using a traditional partition table (/dev/sda5 is on an extended partition), not GPT.
I do see that dracut is complaining about not being able to find the zfs module for initrd when building it. I tried to get zfs working a while back but failed - but I can't remember where to tell dracut not to try to load that module.
It's not a problem on kernel 6.2.6-1-default though - only on 6.2.9-1-default, and I've run dracut -fM --kver <kernel version> for both kernels manually with the same result.
Posting full output for both kernels may give some hints.
