Why are kernel panics now happening?

I have had kernel panics on my M1 MBPro recently-- four in three weeks. It seems to happen after waking from sleep, and in every case the first few lines of the crash report include the phrase: "busy timeout[0], (60s): 'AppleAPFSMediaBSDClient'"

I can't find much on this. Is anyone else experiencing this? It only started to happen after I updated the OS from 11.6.1 to 11.6.2 -- is this coincidental?

I realize that Apple will tell me to just upgrade to Monterey. But I want to know whether there is anything else I can do to avoid this. Is it likely to be a software issue, or does it look like a hardware issue?

thanks in advance -- Nick
