If this is reproducible, please provide full "dmesg" output from
booting and triggering the bug, without the nvidia driver loaded. (If
the bug is only reproducible in the presence of the nvidia driver,
that's fine too, and we can pass the report to that driver's authors.)
Thanks and hope that helps,
Jonathan

As a quick guess, this looks like the bug fixed by the patch [1] which
doesn't seem to have been applied. Maybe there was some other fix.
(Or maybe it is memory corruption. Haven't tried matching the
disassembly to the corresponding code.)
