Not sure, I did not check if these systems have support for just w10 (and not 7, 8 or 8.1). Some others require acpi_osi=! acpi_osi="Windows 2009" to avoid the problematic code path in the ACPI table.

You mean acpi=off? Avoiding runtime pm nouveau would be sufficient but kills battery life. One interesting observation is that turning off the ACPI power resource (via PCIe port PM) or system sleep seems not to trigger the issue. (Compared to using nouveau.) Maybe I'm dreaming, have to retest this just to be sure.

Do you have tips for tracing PCI register activities? (E.g. read/write pm regs)
