At first there was a very straight forward use after free bug which I
fixed.
https://lore.kernel.org/nouveau/YMinJwpIei9n1Pn1@mwanda/T/#u

But now the use after free is gone the only thing in dmesg is:
"[TTM] Buffer eviction failed".  And I have some firmware missing.

[  205.489763] rfkill: input handler disabled
[  205.678292] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Direct firmware load for nouveau/nva8_fuc084 failed with error -2
[  205.678300] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Direct firmware load for nouveau/nva8_fuc084d failed with error -2
[  205.678302] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: msvld: unable to load firmware data
[  205.678304] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: msvld: init failed, -19
[  296.150632] [TTM] Buffer eviction failed
[  417.084265] [TTM] Buffer eviction failed
[  447.295961] [TTM] Buffer eviction failed
[  510.800231] [TTM] Buffer eviction failed
[  556.101384] [TTM] Buffer eviction failed
[  616.495790] [TTM] Buffer eviction failed
[  692.014007] [TTM] Buffer eviction failed

The eviction failed message only shows up a minute after the hang so it
seems more like a symptom than a root cause.
