_ROM method
Interesting, so it looks like
(a) the _ROM method only returns 0x1000 chunks at a time
(b) stores the VBIOS in 8 32K chunks (the chunks themselves do not appear to be
in the ACPI data dump)
I wonder if this is running up against our "fast" ACPI method reading logic
again.
Can you try to edit drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/bios/shadow.c and
comment out (or remove) the line
"{ 0, &nvbios_acpi_fast },"
And see if that helps?</pre>
