I could not reproduce this failure.  That is when I compiled, assembled
and linked your test program using binutils 2.38 tools, the resulting
executable ran correctly.

I was however using Fedora rather than Ubuntu, so possibly the problem
is related to any Ubuntu specific changes that have been made to the
binutils sources.

Also when switching from Ubunti 20.04 to 22.04 it is likely that the
version of gcc has changed as well.  So possibly the problem is with
gcc rather than the binutils.

I suggest that you report the problem using the Ubuntu bug tracking
system.  They should be able to give you a more detailed answer.

Cheers
