Doesn't look like the GV100 firmware is publicly available yet. However it won't affect you at all - you only need the GP106 firmware. Without more info, your issue could potentially be helped by https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/?id=85c5d90fc155d78531efa5d2b02e92aaef7e4b88 so make sure you have the latest available firmware. Otherwise remember this experience when selecting whether to get an AMD or NVIDIA gpu for your next purchase.
