[Impact]
This is optimus laptop with Intel 11th Gen and Nvidia.
In recent kernels like 6.2.0 it gives a blank screen after booting and if nouveau.modset=1 is set, it completely freeze the system.
I remember it was working fine in 5.x kernels.
Now I have to blacklist nouveau and use Nvidia driver instead.
Using this commit of linux-firmware solved the issue:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/nvidia?id=2e92a49f90f73c8edc44b25c6e669d5e70893c90
[Fix]
Upstream commit 2e92a49f90f9 ("nvidia: update Tu10x and Tu11x signed firmware to support newer Turing HW")
[Test Case]
Boot a machine with relevant GPU.
[Where Problems Could Occur]
Updated Nvidia FW so limited to machines with relevant GPUs.
