I updated to 4.15, and the situation is much worse.  With
enable_psr=1, the system survives for several seconds and then the
screen stops updating entirely.  If I boot with i915.enable_psr=1, I
get to the Fedora login screen and then the system dies.  If I set
enable_psr=1 using sysfs, it does a bit after the next resume.  It
seems like it also sometimes hangs even worse a bit after the screen
stops updating, but it's hard to tell.

I see this in my logs:

[drm:drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_flip_done [drm_kms_helper]] *ERROR*
[CRTC:37:pipe A] flip_done timed out

Sometimes I see this a bit later:

[drm:drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_dependencies [drm_kms_helper]] *ERROR*
[CRTC:37:pipe A] flip_done timed out

I'm able to get some debugging out before the system dies.  I see
intel_psr_flush() getting called a bunch, and I don't see
intel_psr_invalidate() being called at all.  I also see
intel_psr_work() activating psr as little as 2ms after
intel_psr_flush() finishes.  So I think the code is indeed buggy or at
least questionable.  I'd try to fix it (at least as well as I can
without knowing anything about how the PSR state machine actually
works), but the fact that the system hangs would make it very hard to
test.
