amdgpu dmesg output on 5.12

After upgrading to kernel 5.13.4 (from 5.12.15, on Arch Linux), I’ve realized
my AMD dGPU was not powering off anymore resulting in increased power
consumption, heat and noise (because of the fan trying to dissipate the heat).

I’ve compared kernel dmesg on both kernels, and I’ve found related differences:

I’ve attached both excerpt matching the diff above.

FWIW, this is a Dell Precision 5530 2-in-1 with a Kaby Lake-G CPU, which has an
Intel HD 630 iGPU as well as an AMD Polaris 22 MGL XL [Radeon Pro WX Vega M GL]
dGPU.

Please tell me if there is anything else that I can provide in order to fix
this.

Please attach your full dmesg outputs.  Can you bisect?

Done. Unfortunately no: I’ve never done so before, so while I expect to be
technically able to do it, I guess it will take some time for me to setup (I
have never compiled a kernel myself either), and time is something I
definitively lack of currently (several deadlines to meet each week until the
end of August).

Since I can live with a 5.12 kernel (or even 5.10 LTS), I’m fine with it having
to wait until I have time to setup bisecting if need be though.

So while I still don’t have time to setup bisecting, I’m now affected even on
LTS kernel. Also, I’ve been in touch with other users having a similar laptop
(the XPS version instead of the Precision, but still KabyLake-G), and they
don’t seem affected. Thus I’m not sure anymore this is a kernel issue (and
whether BOCO vs ATPX is relevant). Where should I seek for guidance in
understanding why my dGPU stays stuck in D0 instead of going into D3? Is this
or https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd and appropriate place?

Closing this old bug, this seems gone now on newer kernels.
