I have similar symptom: after upgrading to linux-image-5.15.0-112-generic, upon boot the screen goes black and does not display the usual prompts to unlock disk or log in to ubuntu user account.

The issue is recurring, repeated attempts to boot using linux-image-5.15.0-112-generic give the same result (black screen).

Restarting and using grub to boot using linux-image-5.15.0-107-generic works around the issue.

processor: AMD® Ryzen 3 2200g with radeon vega graphics × 4
graphics: AMD® Radeon vega 8 graphics
os name: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS

One of the folks impacted in the above reddit thread reported that their although their display was black, the machine booted and they were able to interact with it normally over SSH.
