You can try this patch to get easy access to the timings to see if
they seem reasonable:

    drm/i915/debugfs: Add panel delays for eDP
    
    The eDP backlight and panel enable/disable delays are quite
    useful to know when measuring time consumed by suspend/resume,
    and while the information are printed to the kernel log as debug
    messages, having this information in debugfs makes things easier.
