Hello nvidia Developers and nvidia community,
I have installed the Nvidia 470.57.02 stable driver on Ubuntu 21.04. The laptop is a HP spectre X360 15-dfl550nd with an GeForce GTX 1650 Max-Q and an Intel(R) Core™ i7-9750H. I have tested both Ubuntu kernel 5.11.0-22-generic and mainline kernel 5.12.1. The log shows the following:

Later the log gets spammed with the “rm_init_adapter” line. Driver 465 does work, because of this I suspect it is a bug in the driver. I have attached the output of the nvidia bug report script.
