Hello,
No, I don't think this is the same.
As the partition is an external disk, I tried on my main Mageia 8 system, and it can be mounted.
And it is an additional partition, not the one containing /boot. Reports you cited are about grub not able to read XFS partitions.
Comment 3 Thomas Backlund 2023-09-15 17:46:43 CEST 
Looks like you are the first to request/want XFS support for arm as it has never been enabled there....

I'll enable it for next kernel builds

Thank you Thomas.
I noticed that the bug title says "on aarch64", but the Hardware field said 'All'. I have changed that.
@papoteur : please report after the next kernel.
