Get a 5.12 Linux kernel with support for newer Intel hardware (e.g., Intel Iris Xe for Thinkpad X1 Titanium Yoga) on Ubuntu/Debian/Pop!_OS

Prologue: Do I need this?

I recently got a Thinkpad sporting an Intel® Core™ i5-1140G7 Processor 11. gen (1,80 GHz, Turbo Boost, 4 Cores, 8 Threads, 8 MB Cache with an Integrated Intel® Iris® Xe. Sadly graphics drivers did not work out-of-the-box and also not with the latets 5.12 kernel from xenmod. You can tell it's not working when graphics are slow, backlight adjustment buttons don't work and this is the output of inxi -G (you might need to sudo apt install inxi):

simon@pop-os:~$ inxi -G
Graphics:
  Device-1: Intel driver: N/A 
  Device-2: IMC Networks Integrated Camera type: USB driver: uvcvideo 
  Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.9 driver: fbdev unloaded: modesetting,vesa 
 resolution: 2256x1504~95Hz

1. Downloading and building the Linux kernel

1. Clone the github repository onto your local machine.

$ git clone https://github.com/torvalds/linux.git
$ cd linux

2. Configure the build

# bash generate random 32 character alphanumeric string (upper and lowercase) and 
NEW_UUID=$(cat /dev/urandom | tr -dc 'a-zA-Z0-9' | fold -w 32 | head -n 1)

# bash generate random 32 character alphanumeric string (lowercase only)
cat /dev/urandom | tr -dc 'a-z0-9' | fold -w 32 | head -n 1

ShimV2 has race condition when it cleanups task bundle. There are several cases.

First one is about defer rollback bundle when NewTask fails.

// https://github.com/containerd/containerd/blob/main/runtime/v2/manager.go#L127
func (m *TaskManager) Create(ctx context.Context, id string, opts runtime.CreateOpts) (_ runtime.Task, retErr error) {
	bundle, err := NewBundle(ctx, m.root, m.state, id, opts.Spec.Value)
	if err != nil {
 return nil, err
