Yes, looks like the backport to 5.3 is in progress:

Title:
  intel grafic i915 driver no power saving states rc6

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  It seems that the i915 intel graphic driver in newer kernels (observed with 
5.3) doesn't support energy saving.
  How do I know that? Using powertop shows in idle tab the GPU - and this shows 
only : GPU power on 100% - no rc6 or deeper states are used.
  For some strange reason also the packet (summery?) shows in all states 0%, 
although I can observe the individual CPU cores are in different power states.

  The previous parameter enable_rc6 is not existing anymore.
  The other possible energy saving parameter enable_dc (if set to 1 or 2) 
results in log with:
  setting dangerous option enable_dc - tainting kernel.

  Any idea what might go wrong there?

I am pretty sure, that these mentioned bugs are same issue. Thanks. 
I found this enable_rc6 has been removed due to stability issues.
Do you think Ubuntu will backport the fix?

I believe this is the same as
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1853044 and
possibly https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1856653.

lp:1853044 has test kernels for both 5.3
(https://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/lp1853044/5.3.0-40.32+lp1853044v202002131655/)
and 5.4 (https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~arighi/LP-1853044/) containing a
patch to fix this. I tried the 5.3 test kernel and powertop is now
showing RC6 usage > 90% when my desktop is idle.

If this solves the problem for you, I'll duplicate this to lp:1853044.
