I also tried to follow instructions and cannot run 5.10 linux image. Still have black screen. The good news is it was not necessary to reinstall Bullseye. Just boot from microSD, access /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf and modify the kernel to boot.
I also learned that /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf in Debian is not maintained by extlinux package, but by u-boot-update. That is why there is no possibility to choose interactively the kernel (am I missing something?).
Additionally to linux-image-5.10.0-7-arm64 and its metapackage linux-image-arm it was also installed firmware-linux-free package. Maybe this one was more important, there is also firmware-linux-nonfree and their metapackage firmware-linux.
