[amdgpu] Flickering internal monitor

[Mohsen Pourjam]

Hello everybody,

Recently my internal monitor on my laptop (HP Pavilion Gaming 15) starts flickering after boot. On my laptop I have Geforce 1660 Ti beside AMD Renoir. Formerly I had the problem of not detecting the external monitor but solved it. Now this problem has arisen. I have also updated the kernel to 5.13 recently.

I would appreciate any solution to the problem.

Thank you
