Hi Mihai,
What platform do you have? HSW or BDW?
If you don't know please provide lspci -nn
What happens if you boot with i915.enable_psr=2?
In case it helps, could you please boot with default
i915.enable_psr=-1 appying this patch to your kernel to know what your
VBT recommends:
diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_psr.c
b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_psr.c
index c3abae4..68bc405 100644

dev_priv->psr.link_standby =
