Hi,

I am strugling with the issue of flickering as well on ubuntu 20.04.
When login it keeps flickering the screen.

I've tried both version of the kernel mentioned before:

`https://people.canonical.com/~acelan/bugs/lp1875254/`

unfortunatelly issue persist.

Only fix working for me is mentioned before:

```echo on | sudo tee /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:1f.3/power/control```

but it doesnt solve it always on the first time so sometimes I have to keep running it for until it kick in.

I am using using laptop Dell xps 15.

Could you let me know if there will be any patch released for that or if I can try some other method.

P.S. I was trying as well this:
https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/drm-tip/current/

but didnt succeed with applying patches (i was getting some errors that I could not resolve)
