Hello,
some of the MacBookPro 14,3 users have been struggling with the black screen
issue on their systems, I have been bisecting the kernel commits that came to
v4.18-rc1 and found that the problem is gone when I revert this commit
"drm/amd/display: Do not limit color depth to 8bpc"
e03fd3f300f6184c1264186a4c815e93bf658abb
I presume that the driver cannot get the display_info.bpc from the screen so it
defaults to COLOR_DEPTH_UNDEFINED causing the black screen.
Please let me know,

P.S. I have been sending an email to Harry Wentland & Alex Deucher on 18 Sept.
2018, but no response followed.
