Try this one.

Now, the question is: could 3.6 kernel get VBIOS by ACPI?
If yes, please mount debugfs and send vbios.rom to me please.
(cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/vbios.rom > vbios.rom)

Subject: [PATCH] drm/nouveau: validate vbios size

Without checking, we could detect vbios size as 0, allocate 0-byte array
(kmalloc returns invalid pointer for such allocation) and crash in
nouveau_bios_score while checking for vbios signature.
