Hi Thorsten
Thanks for your attention. I will give you an update here:

I tried rc7 asap it was out as tarball. rc7 contains code changes that I
mentioned in https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/2171 , and it
contains exactly the patches as they discussed on that thread and prediction of
what will work and not after the push to upstream to catch the release.

And my rc7 running result is a match of the progress so far from them. Allow me
to copy paste my post from yesterday:

-------------------------------------
1. The kernel crashed is gone so at least I don't need to force poweroff when
plug in the usb c cable to my USB-C dock Gen 2 (40AS)

2. Now my two monitors (FHD, connected to HDMI port on dock and FHD, connected
to DP port on dock) just don't detect that there is signal incoming.

3. (As a result of kernel crashed is gone) I can just unplug the cable and my
laptop just come back normally.
-------------------------------------

And thus the reason I believe I can close this one and follow them instead.

Sincerely
Eric
