[2020.08.07-6] i915 GPU hang report on 5.8.0-1-MANJARO kernel

This is another one case of GPU hang on the same PC (HW + Linux distro). It is my ongoing 1.5-month long rally of PC freezes and GPU hangs.

Since prev. report #2314 (closed) got these packages updates:

grep --text -iE 'installed|upgraded' '/var/log/pacman.log' | tail -n 50
...
<got no updates since the prev. ticket>

Further ticket: #2326 (closed)

My PC experienced about >100 times of (PC freezes + GPU hangs) during last 6 weeks on every kernel 'family' (4.19, 5.4, 5.7, 5.8-rc) avail. in the distro. 4.19 looks like more stable and usually (but far away from always) able to reset GPU and to continue to work without the PC reboot. The more modern kernel version the much faster GPU hangs without any software reset (which 4.19 kernel can do) or PC freezes.

PC freeze or GPU hang usually happens while semi-transparent, fade in/out, blur effects is/are in action.

I have a feeling that fast occurred serie of GPU hangs leads PC to freeze. If only one-two GPU hang happened 'at once' than PC may freeze or may not freeze.

Steps to reproduce the issue in this ticket

I was typing a description of the prev. hang issue #2314 (closed) in Opera web browser. I switched active window to Krusader, opened dumped journalctl file (~70 MB) via Krusader's Viewer tool (F3 hot key). Started the phrase search GPU or GPU . Found several items close to each other, pressed F3 again and... got GPU hang with 3 picture changing each other. Made photos and than I press the hot key to collect error data.

How often does the steps listed above trigger the issue

Frequency of (PC freezes by unknown reason (serie of sequential GPU hangs suspected) or GPU hangs logged in systemd journal) are near highest possible. It could happen on logon screen without any user activity or during GUI session actions: on a first or 5th or 40th minute. Average is about 1-2 minutes. It is not a concrete exact action, it is general unexpected case and it did happen in (m)any types of typical user activity such as:

-) on logon screen (without any user action, even mouse touch; saw that for about 5-6 times);

-) moving desktop icons;

-) open start menu;

-) open context menu;

-) moving cursor in the text editor via keyboard navigation keys;

-) surfing in system settings window;

-) typing text in terminal emulator (GUI);

-) installing updates in GUI app or GUI terminal emulator;

-) text selection line-by-line in text editor or canceling selection in the Opera browser;

-) open or surfing in Opera web browser: list of gitlab commits viewing, filling a description of an issue ticket on this gitlab.freedesktop.org, watching youtube videos (not fullscreen and not even touch keyboard and mice at least for about last 1-2 minutes), extremely fast freeze/crash while surfing maps.google.com, maps.ya.ru,

etc.
