Got problem after upgraded from 5.45.1. I'm using Webpack HMR for Node.js with configs https://github.com/calcit-lang/editor/blob/main/webpack.config.js . After upgraded, the process keeps logging. Any clue why it's happening. Sorry I can't locate where's the problem, only narrowed down to this upgrade.

my js code was generated from my own language which like CoffeeScript and ClojureScript. didn't retry with a minimal project.

BTW do you have other recommendations for HMR on Node.js after so many years? I feel it's not quite correct to install a whole Webpack and only use it for Node.js HMR, in such an age that people talking about ES6 npm modules.

I'm kind of feeling that users like me who are using tricky and legacy features of Webpack are blocking the process of modernizing Webpack. 😅
