I should preface by saying that I know this is a recurring issue with this driver, but I am getting desperate now and genuinely fear that this will interfere with schoolwork in the future and cause me to retreat to a non-arch distro, or even windows (though given that it's a long-standing kernel issue, it seems to me that windows would be the only salvation, barring an actual solution).
Been using Garuda since January of this year. Came from pure Arch, so wasn't really daunted. Decided to make it my daily driver. In around early April I noticed my WiFi would stop working, then as I tried to use my phone to search for some answers garuda hung up. Keyboard did nothing, mouse did nothing, disk access light would blink infrequently, so I did a hard restart. It only happened every now and again, and (conveniently) never when I needed to be in a zoom call or do something important, so I ignored it.
I eventually got curious though since it began to become a bit more frequent, and saw the following in journalctl

I decided against posting a question after seeing this since kworker (which at that time I doubted was the root problem) was fairly innocuous and it was probably a coincidence that it got logged around when the issue happened. The pacman stuff at the end of those logs are due to me running an update at the same time, in the hope of solving it.
After the update the problem didn't go away but became much less frequent and so ignorable again, so I ignored it again. It did recur around mid-May, and finally late in that month I checked the logs to find this:

At this point I was wondering why I didn't know it was this damn driver again. It did bug me a bit when I was using pure arch, but they seemed to keep their promise of fixing it in an update so I forgot about it. Now it haunts me again, and much worse this time around. Soon after this the problem became very frequent indeed, and somewhat consistent as well (which I can't see any reason for in the logs, including ones I have not shown). After boot I had about 2 hours give or take 10 mins with my laptop before the driver would fail, causing a massive domino effect throughout the system. 30 seconds or so after failure, applications will no longer open nor close (though I can still use them if they're open) and the sudo command no longer works. About 10 seconds after that the shell will no longer open (even in a separate session, so basically it just hangs after login, even if I logged into root). At this point only a hard restart can save the system.
Looking into the whole mt7921e issue again I found a few in a similar situation but they were met with the same "it will be fixed eventually" promise. At this point I recalled Garuda uses the zen kernel, and suspected that perhaps it was behind on the update, so I got the standard linux kernel (well, the arch kernel, ofc, but that's its package name so whatever). This fixed the issue. I spent the summer until yesterday content that I had solved it myself. But then, of course, yesterday happened. It is not as consistent anymore, but the same domino effect occurs. As I write this the driver could fail at any moment. I may not be able to reply immediately to your answers because of this. Log:

Full log There's less context in this log because frankly it's the same issue and it's an old issue.
I just want some kind of an actual solution. A work around. I'm sure the dev team is hard-at-work on this and many other issues. But while they're doing that, is there really no other hope for this situation? Am I truly cursed to be haunted by this damn driver for as long as it is in this state?
I have tried the zen and lts kernels and they fail faster than the linux kernel. Significantly faster than they ever have as well. I mean they fail in like 30 ish mins now. So here I am stuck between 3 kernels, all of them eventually "halt and catch fire," to use INTERCAL's terminology, and only the linux kernel holds out for any useful amount of time.
I have seen mention of linux-mainline and I haven't tried that yet, but given how switching kernels in the past was a mere temporary solution, I am doubtful it will work. I will try it soon after posting though.
