Public bug reported:

I have Ubuntu 18.04 on my system.  When I boot, I get a black screen
once mode switching happens.  Rescue mode (aka nomodeswitch) would bring
me to a gui screen correctly.

I tried backing off to X.org from Wayland, but that didn't help.  I
eventually found an obscure post suggesting adding amdgpu.dc=0 to the
command line.  With this added, I have the GUI I expect.

Originally the system worked as expected, but something changed which
required this setting.

The graphics card is an AMD RX480.
