Interesting, I have the same combo of hw available on my desk at work,
but it might be a couple of days before I can get to the office to
debug it,

can you boot with drm.debug=6 and get me the dmesg?

The attached hack turns off mst so might be useful as a workaround,
but I should be able to fix this once I sit down at my desk.
