With the kernel v5.15.129 and using the i915 driver as built-in module on my hardware it hang the kernel load on the follow log:
[drm] Initialized i915 1.6.0 20201103 for 0000:00:02.0 on minor 0
Making some debug by print I reach the i915_hwmon_register which is the function that does not return.
My hardware is an Intel(R) Atom(TM) x5-Z8350
Interestingly, this did not occur in v5.10...
