I'm not an Ubuntu kernel engineer, so I can't help identify the offending
commit.
What I do see is the following in dmesg:
[ 11.135360] vmwgfx 0000:00:0f.0: BAR 2: can't reserve [mem
0x70000000-0x77ffffff 64bit pref]
[ 11.135366] vmwgfx: probe of 0000:00:0f.0 failed with error -16
And a cat /proc/iomem shows this:
50000000-7fffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00
70000000-77ffffff : 0000:00:0f.0
70000000-702fffff : BOOTFB
The kernel has refused to release BOOTFB, and that explains why vmwgfx
could not obtain it.
This did not happen in 5.19.0-29, and does not happen in mainline
6.1.12. Example from mainline kernel 6.1.12 dmesg (same system, only
chose to boot from 6.1.2 kernel):

Title:
Blank console display with aarch64 kernel 5.19.0-31
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in linux-signed-hwe-5.19 package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Upgraded the kernel on 22.10 aarch64 (running in a VM on VMware Fusion
13.0.1 on Apple Silicon_ from 5.19.0-29 to 5.19.0-31. After the
upgrade and after rebooting the VM no text or graphical console
appears on the VM.
The VM is running and can be accessed through SSH.
Rebooting the VM with kernel 5.19.0-29 - everything is working as
expected. Text and graphical consoles now display properly.
