Those messages get printed by libdrm when the kernel rejects
something. You should also see what the kernel is rejecting and why in
dmesg... this should be instructional. Could easily be that some
mt->ms_x/y shifts are missing. Might want to make some traces of the
blob drivers running some of the more basic piglit tests with MS and
seeing what they do. [I assume you're familiar with valgrind-mmt +
demmt. If not, http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Valgrind-mmt/ ]
