The problem affects nv40 cards during booting. It comes from there being
two places where subdev arrays are maintained. A commit was recently
added to make the two equal. However, the struct nouveau_device version
ends up being referenced before it is initialized. The problem arises
during the creation of the INSTMEM and THERM subdevs. '
