It is actually line 889. See the disassembly below. 889 duallink = mode->clock >= bios->fp.duallink_transition_clk;

The NULL pointer being dereferenced is mode.

Git bisect has identified the following commit as bad: f28e32d3906e drm/nouveau/kms: Don't change EDID when it hasn't actually changed

Here is the chain of events that causes the oops. On entry to nouveau_connector_detect_lvds, edid is set to NULL. The call to nouveau_connector_detect sets nv_connector->edid to valid memory, with status set to connector_status_connected and the flow of execution branching to the out label.

The subsequent call to nouveau_connector_set_edid erronously clears nv_connector->edid, via the local edid pointer which remains set to NULL.

Fix this by setting edid to the value of the just acquired nv_connector->edid and executing the body of nouveau_connector_set_edid only if nv_connector->edid and edid point to different memory addresses thus preventing nv_connector->edid from being turned into a dangling pointer.

Thought I'd ask about the status of this patch. Is there an intention to queue it up for subsequent inclusion at some stage? Thanks.
