DDC/CI crashes graphics driver

It seems like software attempting to communicate with my monitor via DDC/CI crashes AMD Radeon drivers. When communication starts, the desktop including hardware mouse pointer slows down a lot to maybe 1FPS or less, and the application attempting communication with the monitor crashes. If I manage to somehow terminate the application, the system recovers, but if I don't, the graphics driver eventually bluescreens.

Happens at least with software:

  • Eizo ColorNavigator immediately when starting the application
  • X-Rite i1 Profiler when trying to use the "ADC" (Automatic Display Control) feature

Monitors:

  • Eizo SX2461W via DVI
  • NEC PA271Q via DisplayPort

I can also report something like that with Samsung's Magictune.

Everything was just working fine with my HD 7750 on the latest 20.4.2 driver

Then I updated to a R9 290.. And as soon as the program started on boot, windows completely froze.
