Black screens on boot with current master (4.19 staging) and 396.XX

Hi,

since 7eeaeb90 (pushed to master maybe a week or two ago), I’m getting blackscreens upon every boot (just as fire up Xorg on my GTX 1080) and have to reboot into older kernels.

So I quickly bisected between my current stable kernel and master, after reverting on current master I’m able to boot into DE just fine.

Here is the patch for NVIDIA driver module to get it working at all on 4.19 staging and 396.24+:

Edit: Talked about this to Daniel Vetter on #intel-gfx, he suggested that the problem is on Nvidia side (e.g. no reverting on master is likely to happen).
