Noise on the display

This is found on the laptop equipped with AMD A4-9120 RADEON R3, 4 COMPUTE
CORES 2C+2G.  It is seen between BIOS log and Display manager.

To make sure the timing, I have tried with Linux kernel 4.17-rc6.  And boot
with parameters "systemd.unit=multi-user.target modprobe.blacklist=amdpgu"
which makes system boot into command line mode and blacklist the amdgpu module.
 The noise does not appear during the processes.

However, when I load amdgpu module manually with "sudo modprobe amdgpu", the
noise appears on the screen and then system goes back to normal console.  This
also happens in Linux kernel 4.16.

Here is the part of dmesg when amdgpu module is being loaded:
