  1. Configuration

    Disable MMIO access during SMU Mode 1 reset by setting the no_hw_access flag to true immediately after the driver enters the sleep/wait state, before any MMIO register accesses while the device is offline (e.g., to prevent access from interrupt handlers or other driver threads during the reset window).

    drm/amd/pm no_hw_access = true
