Early on kernel 5.10 and before it was just
[drm] Initialized amdgpu 3.40.0 20150101 for 0000:05:00.0 on minor 0
[drm:amdgpu_debugfs_init] *ERROR* Failed to init debugfs
[drm:amdgpu_pci_probe] *ERROR* Creating debugfs files failed (-1).

but now it became panic. Kernel patched with https://github.com/dolohow/uksm/blob/master/v5.x/uksm-5.14.patch - I'm using it since version 4 without problems.

Panic starts with

RIP: 0010:debugfs_create_file_size+0x2e/0x40

..and see more on the picture

Also my GPU is Polaris RX460 (ASUS ROG 4Gb) flashed with bios from RX560. Past 3 years all was working good.

config patch

It seems like amdgpu strongly requires access to debugfs and panics when CONFIG_DEBUG_FS_ALLOW_NONE is set. Also there is no debugfs-related flag for amdgpu - it seems or amdgpu should depend on CONFIG_DEBUG_FS_ALLOW_ALL, or it should have separate debugfs flag to enable/disable debugfs usage (it is seems very possible as it was working early w/o access to debugfs).
