Public bug reported:

[1]
Using the default "radeon" driver result in black screen on boot. Waiting until 
what looks like X finish initializing, putting the computer to sleep and awake 
it again almost always works as a workaround.

dmesg:

[    5.165441] [drm:radeon_dp_link_train [radeon]] *ERROR* channel eq failed: 5 
tries
[    5.165453] [drm:radeon_dp_link_train [radeon]] *ERROR* channel eq failed

And it looks like the DisplayPort is not initialized correctly.

"Black screen" in this context means nothing works (no TTY:s).

[2]
Disabling si_support (GCN 1.0) in grub results in system always boot correct 
from a shutdown state but awake from sleep doesn't work.

[3]
Switching to the experimental (for GCN 1.0 cards) amdgpu driver result in the 
same behavior as in [2].
