I'm also on Stealth late 2016 (QHD). So far, I survived using i915.enable_rc6=0 until that parameter was removed from newer kernels, then I switched to using intel_idle.max_cstate=4. I still wish someone would find the real root cause of this issue.

Today, I noticed the flickering stops completely when I do "rmmod nvme" (booted into usb live ubuntu). Anyone knows how these 2 drivers can possibly affect each-other?

The flickering also temporarily stops while I'm writing a disk image to the nvme ssd.
