I would like to add  few observations:

1. Seems like the issue is Power Management related since I've never
experienced it with AC adapter connected and sometimes almost instantly
after disconnecting it, the flickering is started.

2. Sometimes first "flick" after reboot or PM change is accompanied
with "[drm:intel_cpu_fifo_underrun_irq_handler [i915_bpo]] *ERROR* CPU
pipe A FIFO underrun"

3. My dmesg is not as clean as the one provided by original reporter. It
filled with quite a few bug/dump reports of i915 driver. Attaching my
dmesg.log.

4. Once in a while, I find the computer in state which seems like a
hardware "hang" but I suspect it's an i915 driver fault since sometimes
after a prolonged wait the computer finally wakes up and later I find
the errors mentioned in 3. Note those hangs can happen even if the
computer is powered from AC and no automatic suspend is configured.

Seems like upstream bug report didn't get the attention it deserves, any
ideas on how to assist with this bug(s) resolution?
