Answering my own question for future generations:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'i')s there any other (simpler) way to restore the previous boot loader package that could be considered?
* Mount the SD card on any Linux system
* Extract files from `raspberrypi-bootloader-20220113-1-any.pkg.tar.xz`:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '> xz -d raspberrypi-bootloader-20220113-1-any.pkg.tar.xz
> tar -xf raspberrypi-bootloader-20220113-1-any.pkg.tar')
* Copy files from the extracted `boot` folder to the `boot` folder on the SD card, overwriting the existing ones
* Sync, unmount the SD card, reinsert it in the raspi
* Boot
* "officialize" the downgrade of the bootloader in pacman by doing:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'sudo pacman -U raspberrypi-bootloader-20220113-1-any.pkg.tar.xz')
* Blacklist raspberrypi-bootloader by adding it to the `IgnorePkg =` line in `/etc/pacman.conf`
