Hangs with nvidia-driver.

I've started experiencing hangs after 9.1-RC2 update. These hangs are
caused by indefinitly looping somewhere inside nvidia_drv.so. As time
passes, X server figures it out somehow and escapes from loop, but after
short time everything hangs again.

I've tried downgrading to RC1 and upgrading to RC3, downgrading NVIDIA
driver to 295 and upgrading to the latest, downgrading Xorg and friends to
1.7.7 and upgrading to the latest with WITHOUT_NOUVEAU set. Nothing helped.

Interesting lines from dmesg:
