> dmesg from garbled display
Not sure if/why it's causing a garbled display, but I did spot one bug from the
log that's causing link retraining when it's not needed:

I hope this is just the monitor being really confused as a result of whatever
went wrong before it.  If it's not, your monitor is doing the wrong thing and
it's going to cause it to immediately resume from a power off (we can work
around the problem if it's necessary).  But, in your log, your monitor is
saying "help! i lost the link! retrain me!" in response to DP_SET_POWER_D3,
which it is *explicitly* (according to the DP spec, and, well, common sense)
not supposed to do.
