MacBook Pro Crashing: panic(cpu 2 caller 0xffffff8018d64a25): userspace watchdog timeout

Guys, Need your help. My MacBook keep crashing since I upgraded to macOS Big Sur. This upgrade is disaster for me. I reinstalled OS multiple time (without wiping data). Here is the crash report for my latest crash - (I am also adding EtreCheck Pro Report & Full Crash report , as I saw few folks are recommending it for additional info to investigate). Please help.

Kernel panics are predominantly caused by third-party kernel extensions (kexts) or hardware faults.

The only thing of any utility in the panic log is whether there are third-party kexts loaded. Sometimes there is other info which might suggest which hardware subsystem has a fault, but usually not.

There are several other extremely rare causes including bad Apple kexts.

If it is not a third-party kext, you would need to take it to an Apple Store or Authorized Repair center to determine the cause.
