Bug description:
  [SRU Justification]

  [Impact]

  On platforms with UHD panel, massive drawing area updates may cause
  screen to flash as half-baked render buffers with black areas being
  renedered.

  [Fix]

  This turns out to be the lack of full support to Intel System Agent
  Geyserville (SAGV), which has been landed to kernel v5.8. The required
  fix resides in https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/75129/, which
  seems a rolling set that its early parts have been committed separatedly
  several times. This patchset also depends on
  https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/72301/, which attempts to make
  global state handling more standardized.

  [Test Case]

  1. Trigger massive rect updates, e.g. cat a lengthy file in xterm, dump
  kernel git history, etc.
  2. Observe if screen flashes with half black panes, sometimes black
  stripes, etc.

  [Regression Potential]
  Medium. This is to backport a new feature landed to kernel early this
  year, even there is no later fixes patch found so far, it could still
  introduce incompatibility to older kernels. So far it behaves on both
  UHD and other lower resolutions.

  ========== Original Bug Description ==========

  On platforms with UHD panel, massive drawing area updates may cause
  screen to flash as half-baked render buffers with black areas being
  renedered.

  [Reproduce Steps]
  1. boot to GUI
  2. generate massive screen updates by `while true; do dmesg; done` or so

  [Results]
  Expected Result:
  Text output correctly rendered on xterm smoothly

  Actual Result:
  Screen flashes with black strides, etc.
