This is a regression between v6.0 and v6.1-rc1.  Console output during
boot freezes after nvidiafb deactivates the VGA console.

It was a lot of work for Zeno, but we finally isolated this console
hang to 145eed48de27 ("fbdev: Remove conflicting devices on PCI bus").

The system actually does continue to boot and is accessible via ssh, 
but the console appears hung, at least for output.  More details in
the bugzilla starting at
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216859#c47 .
