Sorry to hear you have this bad experience with i915 PSR2 selective
fetch support. There is already some discussion about these problems
and possible root causes here:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/4951

I have Dell XPS 13 7390 which has panel supporting PSR2. Luckily I'm
not facing these problems with it.
