Hello JF
You can read about amd_pstate here: https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/pm/amd-pstate.html
and about the T14s gen 3 - which also has GPU-related crashes - here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Lenovo_ThinkPad_T14s_(AMD)_Gen_3#GPU

I have not been looking at dmesg after each crash but can only conclude that with kernel 6.3 and above and amd_pstate=active, I'm not experiencing any problems. I've read somewhere that amd_pstate will be on by default in kernels >6.5 but until then we have to activate this feature by ourselves.

Good luck!

edit: as a side note I'm experiencing better battery management and CPU performance with amd_pstate=active. On idle it consume as little as 3.7 W and on performance mode the CPU is boosted to 4.2 GHz. I'm not certain all features are enabled without this boot parameter.
