Since 7.4, I have been encountering the following oops when booting my
computer. The issue is present in rc1 and rc2, 7.3 boots fine.
The kernel booted fine and passed to init, which then tried to start
gdm, gdm did not launch, leading me to dig and encounter the following
oops in the journal.

It is worth noting that my laptop, where I encountered this oops, has
two gpus in a hybrid system, one intel integrated, and one nvidia.

It looks to me like something return an -ENOPROTOOPT (likely due to the
hybrid GPU situation) and then another func tried to deference this
without checking for errors.

Some quick digging shows that it could potentially be related to atomic
mode setting being enabled in 7.4, whereas it wasn't before.

I tried to take a look myself at a patch, but unfortunately I got a bit
lost in nouveau, sorry for not being able to fix it, I hope you're able
to. If you need any further information, please don't hesitate to
contact me.
