I am a novice user attempting to get an RX 6800-XT GPU working on Ubuntu
20.04. I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 because it's recommended by the official
AMD driver installer.

The RX 6800-XT requires kernel 5.10 or later. I have updated to kernel
5.10.0-rc6 using the mainline kernel updater GUI.

When booting into 5.10.0-rc6, I see about two dozen lines like

> cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 4 pages, ret: -12

The closest related bug I found was
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1823753

The boot hangs after those messages are printed.

I also tried kernel 5.9.10 and receive the same error.

However, if I boot into kernel recovery mode, and then select "continue
normal boot", then the system seems to boot normally.

My hardware

AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 3.8 GHz 12-Core Processor
AMD RX 6800-XT GPU
