Argh, that last short session I forgot to add drm.debug parameter.
But my latest drm-tip boot log attachment from yesterday
<a href="https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=145300&action=edit">https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=145300&action=edit</a> should be
exactly the same, at least for the early phase?
Alternatively, if my current 4.19.71 session should freeze, I will re-do a
drm-tip session with drm.debug, and upon freeze, will be able to capture full
`journalctl -b` output for the whole session (it will be several hundred MB
uncompressed).

It's a complete deal-breaker, there is no recovery other than forced reboot via
power button (or Magic SysRq > REISUB). There seems to be no way to unfreeze
the screen. I haven't experienced this type of an difficult to solve graphics
stack issue on DELL laptop hardware for years.
I generally like this Latitude 7400 2-in-1 physical hardware quality, it's the
only reason I'm going through so much trouble trying to identify whether it's a
Linux software issue.
I ran all pre-BIOS hardware tests yesterday, also in Thorough mode, everything
passed w/ green checkmark - Memory, Processor, Video, etc.
Testing Win10 on this machine is prohibitively difficult workflow-wise, even
though it'd be the best way to eliminate "faulty hardware" vector.
I also have another contact in the wild, who has been running this Latitude
7400 2-in-1 hardware on Linux 4.19 branch, and while there have been other
problems, he confirmed not having experienced such screen freezes.
Ideally I'd test my setup with another identical laptop, but I have my doubts
if the DELL people are going to supply me with one without purchase.</pre>
