drm/nouveau/instmem: completely new implementation, as a subdev module
is the first bad commit. Standing on that commit, booting and then starting X yields the output below. Hints are especially appreciated, considering the patch is almost 8000 lines.
Going through one suspend/resume cycle makes the corruption go away, and there are no more errors in dmesg. Oddly enough, I have seen something very similar when using i915 on the MBP10. Builtin modules and systemd in both cases. Maybe this is a general drm issue. Any thoughts?
Thanks, Henrik
