Half-Life Two: Episode Two with the Vulkan support was enjoying better performance on Linux 5.17/5.18 but the game easily already runs at hundreds of FPS at 1440p.
Left 4 Dead 2 with Vulkan was in a similar boat with better performance on Linux 5.17 and newer.
With games like Strange Brigade and Shadow of the Tomb Raider there wasn't too much of a difference across the tested Linux kernel and Mesa versions with the Radeon RX 6750 XT.
Unigine Superposition was seeing performance improvements on Linux 5.17 and newer.
