I can reproduce the same warning on different hardware with a different
trigger.

Machine: HP Z66 G6 14 (ProBook 4 G1ah), AMD Ryzen 7 H 255 (HawkPoint1),
kernel 7.0.8-200.fc44.x86_64.

Trigger: HDMI hotplug with an external 4K monitor. The Z66's HDMI port
uses a DP-to-HDMI protocol converter with FRL support (dmesg shows
"DP-HDMI FRL PCON supported"). Connecting the monitor at boot causes
the first timeout during initialization; subsequent hotplug events
repeat it at runtime.

The call trace matches yours exactly:
  dcn31_program_compbuf_size line:141
  dcn20_optimize_bandwidth
  dc_commit_state_no_check
  dc_commit_streams
  amdgpu_dm_atomic_commit_tail

Not seen with 6.19.x. CachyOS community bisected this to:

  commit 592c5b80110d5e9e50873b5364818cb6f401e26d
  "drm/amd/display: Migrate HUBBUB register access from hwseq to hubbub 
component"

One thing I noticed on my setup: the amdgpu driver defaults to
max_bpc=16 for the HDMI connector. With a HDMI 2.0 monitor (BenQ
EL2870U, Max TMDS 340 MHz) at 4K@60Hz, the higher color depth
increases bandwidth demand during compbuf reprogramming and makes the
timeout happen more often. Adding amdgpu.deep_color=0 helps but does
not fix the root cause.

Partial workaround:
  amdgpu.runpm=0 amdgpu.gfx_off=0 amdgpu.deep_color=0

A patch proposed by Giuseppe Ranieri in the CachyOS issue tracker [1]
changes the REG_WAIT parameters from 1us*100 to 1000us*30 and resolves
the warning for several users with DCN 3.1 hardware. Discussion there
is ongoing about whether 2-10us*1000 would be a better fit.
