There are a couple of options. The easiest way is to boot into an older
generation before running 'guix pull', if you have any generations with
kernel < 5.4.36 lying around.
Another is to pin the kernel to an older revision of Guix using an
"inferior". You would have to update your system configuration along
these lines:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(use-modules (guix inferior)
(guix channels))
;; A channel with Linux-Libre 5.4.35.
(define channels
(list (channel
(name 'guix)
(url "https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git")
(commit "851a3a779a7173807683e0a3c4e118ef4d8eb0b7"))))
(define inferior
;; An inferior representing the above channel.
(inferior-for-channels channels))
(define linux-libre-5.4.35
(lookup-inferior-packages inferior "linux-libre@5.4.35"))
(operating-system
[...]
(kernel linux-libre-5.4.35))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Then reconfigure and reboot, of course.
Hope this helps!
