Ok great, the testing done so far appears to be pinpointing this to an
issue fixed with newer kernel drm code.  It's possible a specific patch
resulted in the fix.  In that case, the next logical step is to do a git
bisection search on the kernel code to locate the fix.  The procedure is
a little technical but is well documented at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection.  I'll reassign to the
kernel meanwhile.

Btw, drm code can be a bit thorny, and even if the solution is narrowed
to a specific git commit, extracting and backporting it might be pretty
tricky.  But the kernel team can follow up with advice on the issue;
please contact them if you have additional questions.
