So this is probably wrong, but here is a clue about what is happening. 
It appears that the error code is not being propagated from
gk20a_gr_new(). gk20a_gr_new is returning -ENODEV due to the firmware
loading failure...

342         if (gf100_gr_ctor_fw(gr, "fecs_inst", &gr->fuc409c) ||
343             gf100_gr_ctor_fw(gr, "fecs_data", &gr->fuc409d) ||
344             gf100_gr_ctor_fw(gr, "gpccs_inst", &gr->fuc41ac) ||
345             gf100_gr_ctor_fw(gr, "gpccs_data", &gr->fuc41ad))
346                 return -ENODEV;

... but this is ignored by nvkm_device_ctor() (probably for good
reason). If I make the following change the hang no longer occurs
(although I realise this is probably wrong as it has been there for
 years!) ...

So is gk20a_gr_new() returning the wrong error code for when the
firmware load fails? 

I have no gone back to see what has change in this regard, but I
can, probably next week.

Cheers
Jon
