Reverting that from 6.5.12 fixes the issue for me.
Current upstream rc kernel contains this patch but doesn't show the issue.

I believe it's the same discussion as https://lore.kernel.org/stable/5993222.lOV4Wx5bFT@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/#t

The outcome was that another missing patch is in the stable queue for various kernels and will be part of the next stable release for various kernels.

Great, thank you!
I can confirm that v6.5.12 + a5d6264b ("xhci: Enable RPM on controllers that support low-power states")
fixes the issue for me.
