dpu_encoder_virt_atomic_disable() disables the physical encoders one by
one. For a video-mode master, dpu_encoder_phys_vid_disable() stops its
timing engine, waits for the frame to finish and then runs
dpu_encoder_helper_phys_cleanup(), which resets the CTL. With a split
display (two interfaces driven from one CTL, e.g. bonded DSI) that CTL
is shared with the slave, whose timing engine is still running at that
point: the source pipe starts fetching the slave's next frame and is
left stalled half-way through it (on SM8850, SSPP_CMN_STATUS 0x10030
with the fetch and unpack counters frozen, where an idle pipe shows
0x10003).
The stall is cleared by a power collapse of the MDSS core GDSC, which
normally happens between a disable and the next enable, so it goes
unnoticed. When MDSS stays powered across the disable -- a full modeset
within one commit, or another runtime-active user of MDSS such as the
DP controller -- the next enable of the bonded DSI panel scans out
nothing: the DPU keeps committing frames, the layer mixers produce no
output (CRC 0), and the panel shows black with the backlight on. A CTL
reset at enable does not clear it.
Stop the timing engine of every video interface of the encoder before
any of them is cleaned up. The master's existing wait for the frame to
complete then covers both halves.
Seen on a Lenovo Legion Tab Y700 gen 5 (TB323FU, SM8850) with a bonded
DSI video-mode panel (CSOT PP8807HB1-1). It reproduces without any
external display by keeping MDSS runtime-active:
echo on > /sys/bus/platform/devices/9800000.display-subsystem/power/control
then DPMS off and on from the compositor: black 3/3 before this change.
Every full modeset (e.g. a refresh rate change) went black the same way.
With this change: DPMS off/on 13/13 and full modesets 4/4 show the
picture, and an attached DP display is unaffected. Only tested on this
device.

(https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260826182459.1506522-1-saimzst@gmail.com/)
alone does not help here: still black 3/3 with only that change.
