Thanks for investigating and sharing your results!

I'm seeing the same symptoms and previously found out that this is
related to LCDIF underrun errors. See [1] for more information.

Adam has also started this thread: [2].

Anyway, knowing that this is related to fw_devlink=rpm is really
helpful. I just tried with fw_devlink=on and wasn't able to see any
issues anymore. So this confirms your findings.

I hope that some of the driver framework and runtime PM experts can help
to find out what is actually wrong and how the correct fix might look like.

I'm also CC-ing Saravana who authored the change from fw_devlink=on to
fw_devlink=rpm to see if they have anything to add.

Thanks
Frieder
