dmesg with drm.debug=0x1e

System architecture: x86_64
Kernel version: 4.9.0-rc2+ (drm-intel-nightly, latest checkout (commit
bbb625b))
Linux distribution: Gentoo Linux
Machine: Acer TravelMate B116-M-P16S
Processor: Intel Pentium N3700
Display connector: HDMI

I have connected an external monitor to my laptop using HDMI, internal LCD is
disabled. I am using the default settings that the screen is disabled after
some time of inactivity. Sometimes, when I press a key or move the mouse to
turn back on the screen, I only see a white screen (sometimes a different
color, but mostly white). Starting programs using a keyboard shortcut does not
help to get back the desktop.
My workaround is to call a script using a keyboard shortcut that turns off HDMI
output (xrandr --output HDMI1 --off) and enables the internal LCD (xrandr
--output eDP1 --auto --primary). After that I call a different script that
turns off the internal LCD and switches back to HDMI output. Sometimes I have
to call the scripts multiple times until I can resume work.
If the problem happens the kernel log shows:

[drm:intel_set_cpu_fifo_underrun_reporting [i915]] *ERROR* pipe A underrun
[drm:intel_cpu_fifo_underrun_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR* CPU pipe A FIFO
underrun

I have attached the dmesg output with drm.debug=0x1e.</pre>
