Hi,
Since 6.8-rc1 the internal eDP display on the Lenovo ThinkPad X13s does
not always show up on boot.
The logs indicate problems with the runtime PM and eDP rework that went
into 6.8-rc1:

and this can also manifest itself as a NULL-pointer dereference:

Users have also reported random crashes at boot since 6.8-rc1, and I've
been able to trigger hard crashes twice when testing an external display
(USB-C/DP), which may also be related to the DP regressions.
I've opened an issue here:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/msm/-/issues/51
but I also want Thorsten's help to track this so that it gets fixed
before 6.8 is released.
#regzbot introduced: v6.7..v6.8-rc1
The following series is likely the culprit:
