But what do I say for bad?

   git bisect bad linux-5.13.y
   error: Bad rev input: linux-5.13.y

Just saying:

   git bisect bad
   git bisect good v5.13.1
   Bisecting: a merge base must be tested
   [62fb9874f5da54fdb243003b386128037319b219] Linux 5.13

If I read this correctly it now set v5.13 as bad and v5.13.1 as good.
How to set the correct bad?
