any more details on what kind of machine this is
(CPU generation, if it's an older HP/Dell/Supermicro server or
consumerhardware)?

could you please try (in that order, and until one the suggestions fixes
the issue):
* adding `iommu=pt` to the kernel cmdline
* adding `intel_iommu=off` to the kernel cmdline
we have updated the known-issues section of the release-notes to suggest
this already after a few similar reports with older hardware/unusual
setups in our community forum:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Roadmap#7.2-known-issues

see
https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-sysadmin.html#sysboot_edit_kernel_cmdline
for instruction on how to edit the cmdline.

I think we have similar reports with each new kernel-series - mostly with
older systems, which need to install a small workaround (usually module
parameter or kernel cmdline switch).
Our tests on many machines in our testlab (covering the past 10 years of
hardware more or less well) all did not show any general issues - but
it's sadly always a hit and miss.

Please let us know if the changes help

Kind regards,
stoiko
