kernel 5.15.x: AMD RX 6700 XT - Fails to resume after screen blank

[Mark Boddington]

Hi all,

TL;DR - git bisection points to 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=v5.15.4&id=61d861cf478576d85d6032f864360a34b26084b1 
as causing an issue when changing power state after idle.

Since 5.15.0 I have had intermittent issues with my GPU failing to 
resume after entering power saving. I have errors like these:

this eventually leads to processes crashing, and the system locking up 
during shutdown.

A git bisection has isolated the following patch as the cause.

     drm/amd/display: Move AllowDRAMSelfRefreshOrDRAMClockChangeInVblank 
to bounding box

     [Why]
     This is a global parameter, not a per pipe parameter and it's useful
     for experimenting with the prefetch schedule to be adjustable from
     the SOC bb.

     [How]
     Add a parameter to the SOC bb, default is the existing policy for
     all DCN. Fill it in when filling SOC bb parameters.

     Revert the policy to use MinDCFClk at the same time since that's not
     going to give us P-State in most cases on the spreadsheet.

I have been running 5.15.4 with 61d861cf478576d85d6032f864360a34b26084b1 
backed out for a few hours with multiple periods of power saving, and so 
far so good.

Cheers,
