In HG laptops, the d3cold control is handled by the OS rather than the driver
(e.g., the driver doesn't call into APCI to handle d3cold, the pci core does). 
The driver just has to support the necessary callbacks to the OS to enter/leave
this state when idle.  Each OS interacts slightly differently with ACPI so if
the OEM never validated Linux it's likely there is some slight differences in
the sequencing that is causing a problem.  You might try playing with the ACPI
interfaces directly on Linux.  There are user mode tools to interact with ACPI.
 Blacklist the amdgpu driver and try calling the _PR3 method for the device to
power it down/up and then see if the device comes back properly.
