Assuming that it would probably not help including commits that were
marked as good in the first bisect, How would I choose such commits?

Unfortunately, it takes multiple days to be reasonably (but not even
then absolutely) sure that a commit is "good". It is significantly
more easy to identify a "bad" commit with this issue.
