Panic (cpu 2 caller 0xffffff800cb07946): watchdog timeout

Hi Team,

I am using Macbook Air (13 inch, Early 2015) macOS Monterey Version 12.0.1


I always get this error when I start my laptop and in middle of my work. What is the solution for this ?

Below is the detailed error:

Try booting to Recovery and use the Disk Utility in Recovery and repair/first Aid the startup disk.
