On HSW non-ULT (or at least on Dell Latitude E6540) external displays start to flicker when we enable PSR on the eDP. We observe a much higher SR and PC6 residency than should be possible with an external display, and indeen much higher than what we observe with eDP disabled and only the external display enabled. Looks like the hardware is somehow ignoring the fact that the external display is active during PSR. I wasn't able to redproduce this on my HSW ULT machine, or BDW. So either there's something specific about this particular laptop (eg. some unknown firmware thing) or the issue is limited to just non-ULT HSW systems. All known registers that could affect this look perfectly reasonable on the affected machine. As a workaround let's unmask the LPSP event to prevent PSR entry except while in LPSP mode (only pipe A + eDP active). This will prevent PSR entry entirely when multiple pipes are active. The one slight downside is that we now also prevent PSR entry when driving eDP with pipe B or C, but I think that's a reasonable tradeoff to avoid having to implement a more complex workaround.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
