I started testing kernel 5.11 around rc5 and it has never booted. However the logs always seemed to be truncated, and I couldn't ssh into my system until today.
However I compiled the latest git today andd ssh in and get useful information.
Everything works great with 5.10.16, so I've attached dmesg_5.10.16_good.txt, Xorg.0.log_5.10.16_good.txt, and journalctl_5.10.16_good.txt to show what happens during a successful boot.
And attached dmesg_5.11-git_fail.txt, Xorg.0.log_5.11-git_fail.txt, and journalctl_5.11-git_fail.txt to show what happens during the failed boot with 5.11 git.
By the way, the journalctl log was produced with journalctl -b -k.

Can you bisect?
I can bisect, but I updated and compiled linux-mainline with the final 5.11 from the Arch AUR this morning and my system boots just fine. I did a couple of quick tests playing videos, running VMs, etc. and everything looks good. So you can close this bug.
I've done some system updates since yesterday so later today I'm going to compile the same linux-git again, and if it fails compile the current linux-git. If that fails then I'm going to compare the linux-git and linux-mainline PKGBUILD files to see if the the error was caused by the linux-git build. I've used linux-git many times over the years and never had a problem with it but who knows. It's definitely worth checking out though.
Thank you for your help and attention, and thanks to all the kernel devs for their awesome work. It is greatly appreciated.

I've closed it as invalid since I'm not sure what the issue was and there was no specific code fix I'm aware of.
