Let me see if I understand what is happening.  Runtime PM seemed to cause PSR to miss some screen updates when you had LPSP masked, then you stopped masking  LPSP and it fixed the missing updates?
My first guess is that you are not in LPSP at this point, so removing the mask is effectively disabling PSR, which prevents PSR from missing screen updates.   Are you still getting good PSR residency with LPSP masked in this situation?  

The LPSP mask is only there fro debug.  We don't normally want PSR to enter without LPSP because there can be undesirable things like clocks stopping which could break the display audio controller and codec.
