The NULL pointer dereference in nouveau_bo_wr16 introduced in
141b15e59175aa174ca1f7596188bd15a7ca17ba was fixed by
aea656b0d05ec5b8ed5beb2f94c4dd42ea834e9d.

That's the bug I hit when bisecting the original problem:
NULL pointer dereference in nouveau_bo_sync_for_device
It's caused by:
# first bad commit: [e34b8feeaa4b65725b25f49c9b08a0f8707e8e86] drm/ttm: merge ttm_dma_tt back into ttm_tt
