With kernel 5.2.0 my colors on my external monitors are kind of dull.
Meaning the contrast seems lower and the gamma seems higher.
It worked fine with kernel 5.1.0.

It can be worked around with:

xrandr --output DP-1-1 --set 'Broadcast RGB' 'Full'
xrandr --output DP-1-2 --set 'Broadcast RGB' 'Full'

Only the external monitors (connected via laptop -> docking station -> display port) are affected. The laptop display is fine.


I started bisecting it and result is:

    drm/i915: Add broadcast RGB property for DP MST
    
    Add the "Broadcast RGB" property to MST connectors, and implement
    the same logic for it as we have in the SST code.
    
    v2: Extract and reuse intel_dp_limited_color_range()
