[Bug 1939222] [NEW] DisplayPort over USB-C not working after release update

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

After (automated) update from 5.8.0-63 to 5.11.0.-25 the displayport over usb-c (Thinkpad e15gen2 i5-1135G7 / GeForce MX450/PCIe/SSE2) is not working properly.
Revert to 5.8.0-63 resolves the problem.
The problem is independent of nvdia-drivers (tried 470, 460 and intel only  drivers). Same Monitors connected over HDMI work properly. Problem is limited to displayport over usb-c.

Problem symptoms: Monitor atttached over displayport allows only VGA resolution(1024 * 768)  and
flickers (on/off periodically). 

no special error messages found in dmesg except for abundance of
"i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] *ERROR* failed to enable link training"
