linux-nvidia-6.5_6.5.0-1014.14 breaks with earlier BIOS release, and modeset/resolutions are wrong

[Patrick Geary]

There are a gigantic number of changes in 1014.14 compared to 1013

I suspect some of the aspeed fixes have been undone, the mode is now... not what it was before, looks like it's falling back to 1024x768. This patchset also brings in a bunch of... strange patches that don't involve the nvidia tree at all.

When I boot an older BIOS series with 1013, works fine, with this it spits out, upon systemd loading some mid-stage stuff:

[^[[0;32m OK ^[[ted ^[[0;1;39mRule-based Manager for Device Events and Files^[[0m.

Nvidia checked it over and saw it was a backport from the coresight stuff:

module_blacklist=coresight_etm4x

'fixes' it, but the modeset is still totally messed up on SMCI's grace hopper setup.

I dunno what other unintended consequences the pile of backports will have on the stability of the system, this will be a time-will-tell sorta thing.
