Thanks Andrew for this hack! That's really a joke. This indeed works with my
Navi10 and a 5120x1440 at 60 Hz resolution. I normally can only use 30 Hz or max.
39 Hz if I want to stay at 8W in idle mode. If I use >40 Hz idle power
consumption goes up to around 32W. But with your trick I can even use
5120x1440 at 60 Hz with 8W idle power consumption. :-)

I'm not really into this hardware/driver stuff but I guess this proves that
there is a bug somewhere. Either in the firmware, in the driver or maybe even
in Mesa or so.

Is someone aware of another place where something like that can be reported? I
mean I would really try out everything to help developers nailing this down but
I it doesn't look like that there are any AMD developers around here. Ok, maybe
AMD just don't cares about bugs at all but hope is the last thing that dies,
right? ;-)
