Doing more testing, and now that I see this "feature" disabled, I don't
think it always turned off the monitor. Looks like half of the time
linux-image-5.4.0-33-generic failed to turn it off, but it still did NOT
hang the entire system like linux-image-5.4.0-37-generic does.
Monitor details
$ sudo get-edid | parse-edid
This is read-edid version 3.0.2. Prepare for some fun.
Attempting to use i2c interface
No EDID on bus 1
No EDID on bus 2
No EDID on bus 3
No EDID on bus 4
No EDID on bus 5
No EDID on bus 6
No EDID on bus 7
No EDID on bus 8
2 potential busses found: 0 9
Will scan through until the first EDID is found.
Pass a bus number as an option to this program to go only for that one.
Bus 0 doesn't really have an EDID...
128-byte EDID successfully retrieved from i2c bus 9
Looks like i2c was successful. Have a good day.

Title:
linux-image-5.4.0-37-generic freezes on idle. linux-
image-5.4.0-33-generic works fine.
Status in linux-signed package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
linux-image-5.4.0-33-generic Works OK
linux-image-5.4.0-37-generic Freezes when leaving idle for some time.
Ubuntu 20.04LTS 64 bits. Fully updated.
Hardware:
AMD Ryzen 7 1800X
32GB RAM (two sticks: Part number KHX2666C16/16G)
Asus PRIME A320M-K - latest BIOS installed
AMD Radeon R9 390X 8GB
NVMe SSD 512GB (I don't recall the brand)
Tried AMDGPU and RADEON drivers for the video card. The issue
persists.
I was not able to find any logs nor kernel panics on the usual log
files. Booting the older kernel makes the machine work perfectly
stable as before.
Most of the time I come back to a black screen. Other times is
partially dimmed, like when entering into power save mode, when the
screensaver kicks in to shut down the monitor.
WORKAROUND:
Disabling the ability to shut down the monitor "fixes" the problem.
In the xscreensaver settings I disabled quick power-off and also
disabled power management, so it never tries to power off the monitor.
Now the system is stable again.
