[Nouveau] Nouveau: NV43 unknown ROM tables?

Tried a 6600 (NV43) in one of my test machines. It works and gets a good 
picture, but runs quite hot (91 degrees Celsius last I looked - but it 
is passsively cooled).

Looking in dmesg I found that nouveau driver tells about some unknown 
timing and voltage tables. Maybe related, maybe not, so here is the post 
for the unknown tables (whether or not it is the cause of hot board). 

Can I provide some additional information about this, like a ROM dump or 
something similar? Is there any interest or is it a known unimportant 
problem?
