laptop screen blank after unplugging from dock with drmModeAtomicCommit: Invalid argument errors
Arch Linux updated to GNOME 41 a couple of days ago and since then I get a completely blank screen on my laptop whenever I disconnect it from my Dell WD19TB dock (with 2 DP screens connected) and flip the screen up. In that state, gnome-shell is just constantly blasting out the same two error messages quoted by the OP in issue #2005 (closed). I commented on that issue but was asked to create a new issue here. To recover, I hard reboot, or ssh in and reboot. This issue is repeatable at will.
In issue #2005 (closed), I was asked to add MUTTER_DEBUG=kms so here is what I get from that:

The above just keeps repeating every 1 second until I reboot.
- Arch Linux, up to date. Running on Wayland.
- Arch package versions: mutter = 41.1-1, gnome-shell = 41.1-1, linux = 5.14.16.arch1-1.
