I just did my own bisection and found the following as the first bad commit:

commit 858868e36dbb8fe30fb5ae6a59ebb2fd123e307d
Author: Lars Ingebrigtsen <larsi <at> gnus.org>
Date:   Sun Nov 7 04:55:02 2021 +0100

    Actually start the alarms in atimer

    * src/atimer.c (set_alarm): Actually start both timerfd and
    alarms (attempted in 4107549a).

I haven't yet tried to figure out why.
