VM CPU issues: watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#7 stuck for 22s!

I am getting "watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#x stuck..." message on a host with local-only storage, no VMs, no ZFS, running Proxmox 9.0.1. It's just Proxmox running alone off local NVMe SSD.
 
>running Proxmox 9.0.1

so, why are you running proxmox 9.0.1 instead of 9.0.11 ?
Sorry, typo:
PU(s) 16 x 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-13500H (1 Socket)
