I hand modified the patches for other changes missing from linux-next in
your base.
I checked on an APU with an eDP display connected and from a VT
hibernate does keep the display off now so this is definitely an
improvement there too.

Is this one right? Don't we still want to call prepare() for all the HW
IP blocks? The eviction call that happens in prepare() is a no-op but
there are other IP blocks with an prepare_suspend() callback like DCN.
That is I think you're destroying the optimization from commit
50e0bae34fa6b ("drm/amd/display: Add and use new dm_prepare_suspend()
callback") by adding this code here.
