dmesg for just modprobe nouveau

OS: Arch Linux
Video adapter: GeForce GTX 780 Ti

Since 4.7 loading nouveau module results in black screen, but when I load
nouveau module with parameter debug=trace the issue does not appear, screen
successfully switches to correct resolution and Xorg can be successfully
started.

I did following:
- after OS booting I issued command "modprobe nouveau", in this case execution
of the command took about 44 seconds;
- when "modprobe nouveau" returned control to shell I blindly issued command
"startx" on terminal in VT;
- after that machine was rebooted with "reboot"

- after reboot I issued command "modprobe nouveau debug=trace", it took about
11 seconds to finish;
- after that I issued "startx" and Xorg started sucessfully.

If I compile nouveau module in kernel then I lose video output right after
kernel loads if I don't pass nouveau.debug=trace parameter.
