So, I tried that.  Turns out, I can still trigger a problem.  Is it
the same problem?  Maybe?  I also tried applying the patch from 

ca386aa7155a ("drm/nouveau/kms/nv50-gp1xx: add WAR for EVO push buffer HW bug")
to 5.8.0-rc6-01516-g0a96099691c8 and very interestingly, it changed
the mode of failure to same thing I saw with 5.10.9 patched with the patch
from that bug report.  In both cases I get this in the log:

kern.err: nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Xorg[2243]: nv50cal_space: -16
kern.err: nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Xorg[2243]: nv50cal_space: -16
kern.err: nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Xorg[2243]: nv50cal_space: -16
kern.err: nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Xorg[2243]: nv50cal_space: -16
...
and so on

In one incident my monitor would't even wake up anymore after this.


I'm trying to repo it now on an unpatched 5.8.0-rc6-01515-gae09163ac27c
right now, as running glxgears does seem to help reproduce problems
faster which is nice, I'm just not entirely sure it's the same set of
problems; hopefully that version is free from issues, but we'll
see...
