Thanks a lot for looking into this. I uploaded the dmesg to the dropbox
area on
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/9wh0nzvp0w1phxz/AAAsvAqHN8ApXzor58FmGbwLa?dl=0.

I will report the results of playing with the various parameters later.

The defaults (what I've tested so far) are:

enable_cmd_parser: 1
enable_execlists: 0
enable_fbc: -1
enable_hangcheck: Y
enable_ips: 1
enable_ppgtt: 1
enable_psr: 0
enable_rc6: 1

2 more questions to the experts: 1. Would it make sense to check out and
try the latest drm-intel-fixes or drm-intel-next branch? 2. How likely
is it that this phenomenon indicates faulty hardware?
