Bug #1954676 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1954676) was opened because of kernel soft lockup issues with Jammy 5.15. A temporary patch to gcc-11 was identified and released under debian/patches/gcc-ibmz-plt-revert.diff, which reverted gcc commit 0990d93 ("IBM Z: Use @PLT symbols for local functions in 64-bit mode"). An eventual fix to the kernel lockup was released under the upstream Linux kernel, commit f3b7e73b2c66.

To this end, the debian/patches/gcc-ibmz-plt-revert.diff patch should be removed from gcc-11 as it presents issues with object file symbols. An attempt at this is in my PPA - https://launchpad.net/~john-cabaj/+archive/ubuntu/gcc-11). This allowed me to get past my issues with the object file symbols.
