Are you sure you have *never* seen it? Do you have netconsole enabled all the

I'm asking because once you hit this bug, machine is dead and you won't find
anything
in the logs.
I'm attaching the testcase. Yes, it's that simple.

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
struct nouveau_device *dev = NULL;
struct nouveau_channel *chan = NULL;
if (nouveau_device_open(&dev, "")) {
perror("nouveau_device_open");
return 1;
}
if (nouveau_channel_alloc(dev, 0, 0, &chan)) {
perror("nouveau_channel_alloc");
return 2;
}
return 0;
