** Description changed:

- On an HP x360 Spectre (i7-8565U WhiskeyLake-U GT2 [UHD Graphics 620]),
- after upgrading to 22.04 from 21.10, the display goes to some flickering
- lines in black and grey or colors (remember the artifacts on Amstrad CPC
- or C64 when loading from a tape? Same here...).
+ On an HP x360 Spectre (i7-8565U WhiskeyLake-U GT2 [UHD Graphics 620]), after 
upgrading from 21.10 to 22.04, at boot time just after grub, the kernel 
displays some errors messages then goes to black.
+ I configure my machine with an encrypted filesystem and before it was going 
to the splash screen and asking for the partition password.
+ If I type in the password, it seems to boot but the screen stays black 
forever.
  
- After the initial grub menu, the kernel loads and boots. There are a few
- lines of log when the screen is in text mode. As soon as the plymouth
- screen comes in, the screen starts flickering massively. Nothing
- appeared on the screen except horizontal lines. I have an encrypted
- partition, so I type in the password and then the screen goes to
- flickering lines in color when Wayland starts.
- 
- I tried different kernels:
- - 5.17.8: failed
- - 5.15.x: all failed (from Ubuntu 22.04)
- - 5.13.19: works and back to normal
+ It seems the bug started with the 5.15.x series. I have been able, using
+ "mainline" to update up to 5.14.21. After this version the problem appears. 
Before it's fine.
  
  I found the following errors in the logs:
  * i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] *ERROR* Atomic update failure on pipe A 
(start=43426 end=43427) time 300 us, min 2146, max 2159, scanline start 2131, 
end 2171
  * i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] Finished loading DMC firmware 
i915/kbl_dmc_ver1_04.bin (v1.4)
  * i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] [ENCODER:102:DDI B/PHY B] is disabled/in DSI mode 
with an ungated DDI clock, gate it
  * i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] [ENCODER:113:DDI C/PHY C] is disabled/in DSI mode 
with an ungated DDI clock, gate it
  * i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] *ERROR* CPU pipe A FIFO underrun
  
  So the problem is > 5.13.x series
  
- I temporarily solved it by downgrading to 5.13.19 from ubuntu mainline
- on a newly updated ubuntu 22.04! But it seems the bug affects all the
- kernels.
