  [Impact]
  On serveral Dell laptops, the screen often displays garbage or the screen is 
flicking

  This PR is just a workaround, the upstream bug is here:
  https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/9739#note_2187863

  After the upstream fix this bug with a real fix, I will revert the
  workaround and backport the real fix to Noble and Jammy oem-kernel.

  [Fix]
  There is no real fix so far, ODM recommends to use a workaround to disable 
PSR2, this is a temp solution, after we get the real fix, we could revert the 
temp workaround.

  [Test case]

  booting with the patched kernel, If the pannel's edid is in the qurik
  list, the PSR2 will be disabled (checking
  /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_edp_psr_status; if the pannel's edid is
  not in the quirk list, the graphic driver will work as before.

  [Where problems could occur]
  It is possible that the temp solution couldn't work, then the screen will 
still show garbage and the screen is flicking, another possible regression is 
the screen has no problem before, but after running patched kernel, the PSR2 is 
disabled and the system cost more power, but this possibility is very low, I 
tested the patched on some dell machines, all worked well.
