No, this shouldn't happen.
I assume it happens in
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master
after cfd48ad8c4a9 ("drm/i915: Fix HPD polling, reenabling the output poll work as needed")
which could result in the above problem.
Could you give a try to
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230809104307.1218058-1-imre.deak@intel.com/
and if that doesn't help provide more information/logs, by opening a
ticket at:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/new
Thanks,
Imre
