Agreed, and I can't test BACO anyway, so I'll keep it BOCO only in v2
Mario, sorry, I'll leave your BACO suggestion out unless someone has a
board that needs it

It does, but only on the iGPU: ATIF is in SSDT7 under \_SB.PCI0.GP17.VGA_,
and the dGPU node (\_SB.PCI0.GPP0.SWUS.SWDS.VGA_) has none

What arrives here isn't an ATIF notification either.  _L05 in SSDT9 is
just Notify (\_SB.PCI0.GPP0.VGA, 0x81), and that path doesn't exist on
this board, so the interpreter aborts the method with AE_NOT_FOUND and no
Notify is delivered to anything.  I've put the tables and the errors in
a bug: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/work_items/6061

What I haven't checked is whether the firmware would flag a dGPU display
event in the ATIF SBIOS requests if the Notify did arrive at the right
node.  If I alias the path so it resolves, I can turn on drm.debug and see
whether amdgpu_atif_handler() fires and what request flags come back, and
if ATIF_DGPU_DISPLAY_EVENT is set I'll use the existing handler rather
than add a new one.  I'll report back

Mike
