Linux 6.3 triggers a use-after-free inside #nouveau with the consequence of corruption kernel memory.
If you run on 6.3 and #nouveau it's the best to downgrade to 6.2 if you don't want to risk trashing your filesystem or cause any other abnormal behavior.
At least for now I only ran into heap corruptions not doing any damages, but that might just be out of sheer luck as I was seeing ext4 code hitting random garbage pointers inside `kmalloc`.
Feel free to share for awareness.
