This change broke VirtualBox 6.1.34 in several ways:
It causes random crashes and filesystem corruption in the guest
(at least on some host CPU models).
More details can be found in the
corresponding ticket in the VirtualBox bug tracker:
https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/20914
That ticket also contains a patch "vbox-linux-5.18.patch"
for VirtualBox that fixes the problem,
at least for kernels 5.18 and (hopefully) above.
This patch got added to nixpkgs' VirtualBox build recipe with
