It seems to be a variation on this bug which affects only AMD GPUs:

    https://bugs.gentoo.org/907431

Clearing the GPU driver cache or using the -disable-gpu-driver-bug-workarounds
option avoids the problem.

In my case, It wasn't a mesa update that triggered the problem. I
think it was the llvm update (I haven't confirmed that).
