There is not much we can do without knowing the defconfig or .config you
are using.

By the way the bisect makes no sense, the only bad one is the top commit
"Add linux-next specific files for 20260122", which is unlikely because
that commit does no modification to the code. Maybe your build was
performed in an unclean tree ?
