If it works with Linux 5.8, can you stick to an older kernel (which will
not receive security updates) until there is a newer driver release
available from Nvidia?
I just installed 5.8 from buster-backports along with tesla-440 driver
and it seems to give slightly better results,the modules build and load,
but similar errors in kernel:

I don't mind waiting for a newer release, or using an older kernel,
however any suggestions to solve the problem would be appreciated, even
outside this particular bug report.
