Afaik they do not and my attempts to get them to even reproduce the issue failed...

so I don't see it getting fixed any time soon and honestly, if I have to put more time into it I might even stop caring as the fix we have for Nouveau is good enough and appears to have resolved the issue for good.

In case you are still plagued by it I suspect you might want to bring that up to Nvidia directly and see if they get more motivated fixing it if they get more reports.
