More anecdata:

While I build Linux 5.15.17 (not linux-libre) using the Guix kernel
config, adapted for Debian, it works fine on Debian.

The only changes required for Debian are:

1) Switch from CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_GZIP to CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_XZ
2) Set CONFIG_MODPROBE_PATH=/sbin/modprobe

This Debian kernel doesn't use the config options set in ((gnu packages
linux) %default-extra-linux-options), so it's not a very useful point of
comparison.
