 # Panel Replay is Xe3-new, default-on in the xe driver, and has a broken
 # exit/wake path on this eDP panel: the panel latches the last-presented
 # frame in self-refresh and never wakes for subsequent atomic commits, so
 # the screen only updates on a full modeset (e.g. a VT switch). The older
 # xe.enable_psr=0 knob does not cover Panel Replay.

-# The panel's EDID on eDP-1 reads as empty, so xe takes backlight type from
-# VBT (which says PWM) but the panel actually wants DPCD AUX backlight.
-# Without xe.enable_dpcd_backlight=1, intel_backlight sysfs writes succeed
-# but produce no visible change; brightness is effectively binary.
