OK, as expected. And those backtraces are the fallout from a boatload
of ttm changes that went into 3.10. So 3.9 should be safe for you :)

So that these findings don't get lost/forgotten, mind filing a bug
with your various findings as per
http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Bugs/ ? Unfortunately I have never
observed your particular issue on any of my pre-nv50 cards
(nv05/18/34/42/44), so there must be some special component. Perhaps
it's the IGP-ness. Although others with IGP's haven't complained about
this.
