Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
I am honestly not sure how this bug happens but. Every time I enter a Vulkan game, there is a good chance that it might freeze my entire system, especially if they are hard to run. I've experienced this on all gamesm Apex Legends the most, and Team Fortress 2 the least. I cannot access the tty or anything when this happens and I would have to hard reset my PC to use it again.
Adding amdgpu.norentry=0 seemed to have made it less frequent but not by much. OpenGL games work perfectly fine but they tend to be heavily buggy and unplayable at some parts. Running journalctl -b-1 after the freeze gave me this.

Steps for reproducing this issue:
It's hard to find any real consistency. I'll try my best to give out any steps
Enter Steam.
Enter any game using Vulkan
Wait.
If you have Apex legends. I have found out an interesting step to reproduce the freeze.
Unfortunately there doesn't seen to be any other leads. Not even the reproduced issue part works anymore. All I have is a proton log file from One Armed Robber when the freezing happened.
