Subject: commit 9d8c094ddab0 breaks Xorg/xfce4

Since linux-next-20240801 starting Xorg/xfce4 fails on my MSI Alpha15 Laptop.
I bisected this to the following commit and reverting this in linux-next-20240801
fixes the issue for me. Gnome (with Xwayland) works as usual.

9d8c094ddab05db88d183ba82e23be807848cad8 is the first bad commit
commit 9d8c094ddab05db88d183ba82e23be807848cad8

    drm/amd: Add power_saving_policy drm property to eDP connectors

    When the `power_saving_policy` property is set to bit mask
    "Require color accuracy" ABM should be disabled immediately and
    any requests by sysfs to update will return an -EBUSY error.

    When the `power_saving_policy` property is set to bit mask
    "Require low latency" PSR should be disabled.

    When the property is restored to an empty bit mask ABM and PSR
    can be enabled again.
