FWIW, I patched my kernel with the above, and it did seem to save the
box from crashing when this happened again:

    [14357.953046] amdgpu 0000:30:00.0: [drm] Failed to create MST payload for port 000000006d3a3885: -5
    [14358.025845] [drm] DM_MST: stopping TM on aconnector: 00000000ef1bcb79 [id: 86]
    [14358.593779] [drm] DM_MST: starting TM on aconnector: 00000000ef1bcb79 [id: 86]

In this case, all of my windows got moved to the secondary monitor, but
the machine stayed up and running. I think seems to mostly occur when
the display goes to sleep.
