psplash-default cpu hogging

Description

During the latest testing of master psplash-default process was observed to hog 1 core at 100% on Upsquared. The process seems to be stuck in a some sort of a loop.

using perf ftrace to trace the process produced 46MB log file for 1 second, the file attached is compressed

attaching dmesg and journal

This behavior was also observed during testing cycle of halibut 8.0.6 on h3ulcb, splash-quit service failed to stop:
