Alexander Kops, to advise, if the root cause problem is drm-intel (I'll
let Kai-Heng Feng speak to this as the root cause since he asked you to
test this), and this is confirmed an issue in the latest mainline kernel
(which is now 4.14-rc8) then testing drm-intel makes sense.

This is due to how Ubuntu sources paches from mainline (not drm-intel),
and some patches, but not necessarily all, are sent from drm-intel to
mainline. Also, drm-intel is an experimental, fast changing tree, where
some patches that don't and will never exist in mainline can be
removed/added at any time.

Despite this, while you did note the kernel crash as per #4, and the
errors as per the Bug Description, you didn't include the log in its
entirety, which would allow one to best confirm this is the root cause.

I took a peak at the recent attachments, and while I'm not an expert, I
didn't find better confirmation either way.

Kai-Heng Feng, could you please advise on your thoughts regarding the
root cause here?

Would an SSH/netconsole dump be helpful here as per
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSystemCrash, or you think
enough information is available?

Title:
  Crashes after unlock: [drm:intel_cpu_fifo_underrun_irq_handler [i915]]
  *ERROR* CPU pipe A FIFO underrun

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After upgrading from Ubtuntu 17.04 to Ubuntu 17.10 this bug started appearing.
  When I lock my screen on my Lenovo T450s and the notebook sits in the dock 
(two external screens attached), one of the three things happen when I come 
back after some time and try to unlock (so it went to power save in-between):
  * Most of the time the computer was just shut down and I have to start it 
again
  * Sometimes the notebook screen flickers weirdly and one of the two other 
screens show pixel garbage
  * The notebook screen shows the lock screen but is completely frozen.
  Occasionally unlocking also works.

  The last thing I find in /var/log/syslog is
  [drm:intel_cpu_fifo_underrun_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR* CPU pipe A FIFO 
underrun
  [drm:intel_cpu_fifo_underrun_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR* CPU pipe B FIFO 
underrun

  Using or not using the following kernel parameter didn't change anything:
  i915.enable_rc6=0
