TypeLoadException when patching a method in a class, which inherits a class that has a generic argument of type enum

[btastic]

Describe the bug
I want to patch a method which is residing in a class, that inherits from a class which has a generic argument of 'T' where 'T' is enum.

To Reproduce
I compiled a little package with a simple repro.

You can download the zip file here: https://we.tl/t-yfbtmiVmA5

The packaged game is prepatched with MelonLoader 0.6.1

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. The original method and its signature and class

using System;
using UnityEngine;

public enum GameScreen
{
    Title = 0,
    Game = 1,
}

public class MyGameScreen : GameScreen<GameScreen>
{
    private int _something = 0;

    public void SetSomething(int i)
    {
        _something = i;
    }

    void Start()
    {
    }

    void Update()
    {
    }
}

public class GameScreen<T> : MonoBehaviour where T : Enum
{

}

3. The patch code

[HarmonyPatch(typeof(MyGameScreen), "SetSomething", new Type[] { typeof(int) })]
public static class Patch
{
    private static void Prefix()
    {
        // The code inside this method will run before 'PrivateMethod' is executed
    }

    private static void Postfix()
    {
        // The code inside this method will run after 'PrivateMethod' has executed
    }
}

public class Mod : MelonMod
{

}

Errors:

Expected behavior
It should not error..?

Screenshots / Code
Not much to say here. I originally intend to patch a game which uses the same unity version, the same code structure etc.

Runtime environment (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 11
• .NET version: .NET Standard
• Harmony version: 2.10.1.0
• Name of game or host application: doesn't matter, I included a custom made sample which reproduces the same error as in the game

Additional context
Add any other context about the problem here.
