DP panel regressions in 6.8-rc1
The internal eDP display sometimes fail to show up on the Lenovo ThinkPad X13s and sc8280xp-crd since 6.8-rc1:

This can also manifest itself as a NULL-pointer dereference:

Users are also reporting random reboots since 6.8-rc1 and I could trigger some hard resets like that when disconnecting and reconnecting an external display, which may also be related to the DP runtime pm and panel attach rework in 6.8-rc1.
