I gave it a try, and ... was left with an non-booting system.

I managed to recover by booting from an sd card (which involved opening the
laptop to recover the micro sd card that slid next to rather than into the
slot).

Then I managed to overwrite the broken installation on the hard-disk and chose
the manjaro distro, because it's supposedly the best supported distro for
pinebook pro.  That got me a 6.1.x kernel, which after upgrading got me a 6.6.7
kernel. 

The manjaro install also got me a 64-bit kernel + 64-bit user land.

I managed to build a chroot with 32-bit debian, which is about as close as I
can get to the old 64-bit kernel + 32-bit userland setup. [ I used arch-chroot,
hand-edited to unset pid_unshare and mount_unshare, otherwise we run into
warnings due to not finding /proc/PID/mem. ]

I ran this test-case a 100 times, and the problem doesn't reproduce.
