GPU stuttering/freezing Ubuntu 22.04 and 22.10: kernel: [drm:amdgpu_dm_commit_planes [amdgpu]] *ERROR* Waiting for fences timed out!

Brief summary of the problem:

Every 5 to 10 minutes I'm having stutters while using only monitor connected via USB hub.

It's a laptop with 3 monitors connected, 1 via direct hdmi, and 2 into the USB C HUB via hdmi as well. The stutters only happen on the USB C HUB monitors.

This started happening in Ubuntu 22.04.1, I decided to upgrade to 22.10 in the hopes that it would go away with a kernel upgrade but it's still there.
