Following the recent upgrade to kernel 5.13.0-28-generic my system still cannot boot without 'nomodeset'. I have included the output from journalctl in hopes somebody can help me. I'm using the onboard Intel WiFi and graphics hardware. My system has the iwlwifi problem which I work around with
sudo mv /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0.pnvm /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0.bak
as found here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=212371#c13
Below is the boot log for kernel 5.13.0-28-generic in the area where things first appear to go wrong. Note the soft lockup of CPU#14
journalctl -k -b -1

Feb 04 11:00:42 europa kernel: watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#14 stuck for 53s! [systemd-udevd:590]
After the recent upgrade to Ubuntu kernel 5.13.0-27-generic my system hangs on boot at the splash screen. I can only get it to boot by adding nomodeset to the grub BOOT_IMAGE command line. I am using the onboard Intel video support of my mother board, i.e., no video display card. After boot with nomodeset my two display screens are stuck at a 1024x768 resolution with both monitors showing identical video. There are no options for changing the display under Display Settings from the desktop.
My current work-around is to revert to the 5.11.0-27-generic kernel where everything works as normal. I have two joined displays working at 1920x1080 resolution.
I would like to be able to fix this issue so I can be able to upgrade to new kernels as they are made available by Ubuntu.
Here are the specifics for my system:
Mother Board: ASRock Z590 Steel Legend WiFi 6E

I think the recent kernel upgrade is somehow not correctly configuring my video.
Please let me know if I can provide any further information.
Thanks for any help and guidance you can provide.
