Description:

Some few days ago, my computer started making a weird noise when it turns off. I dual-boot with Windows and it does not produce that sound while shutting down from that OS. I am certain that this noise is produced by some bug of some package of arch.

After some investigation as shown in https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=289789 I discovered that it is a regression of the kernel 6.5.8

Package Version: linux-6.5.8.arch1-1 and linux-headers-6.5.8.arch1-1

Steps to reproduce:

1. Boot an arch system that uses hard disk drives (HDD) with the linux 6.5.8 kernel.
2. Turn it off
3. An instant before fully shutting down, a noise from the HDDs is heard. (that sound was recorded and can be played here: https://voca.ro/146FaW6yMjrA )

Temporary fix:
1. Downgrade to the 6.5.7 kernel

Additional info:

Drives:
/dev/nvme0n1 NVMe drive that does not mount automatically.
The next drives are all SATA:
/dev/sda HDD linux-swap and ext4 partition that mounts /home
/dev/sdb HDD ext4 partition for extra data.
/dev/sdc SSD with ntfs partition for windows. Not mounted automatically.
/dev/sdd SSD with ext4 partition that mounts / and boot partition

This task depends upon
