Please attach the output of the `acpidump` command. Someone else with a similar
problem on an Asus U43Jc:
https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/issues/170. A copy from his
error:

ACPI Error: Field [ROMI] Base+Offset+Width 0+24+1 is beyond end of region
[VROM] (length 24) (20120320/exfldio-210)
ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.RP00.VGA_._ROM] (Node
ffff880131dee050), AE_AML_REGION_LIMIT (20120320/psparse-536)
failed to evaluate ROM got AE_AML_REGION_LIMIT

The \_SB.PCI0.RP00.VGA._ROM method from his DSDT:

        Method (_ROM, 2, NotSerialized)
        {
            Store (\_SB.NVOB, Local0) // read 32-bit field from SystemMemory
            Add (Arg0, Local0, Local0)
            ShiftLeft (Arg1, 0x03, Local1)
            Name (VBUF, Buffer (Arg1) {})
            OperationRegion (VROM, SystemMemory, Local0, Local1)
            Field (VROM, ByteAcc, NoLock, Preserve)
            {
                ROMI,   65536
            }

            Store (ROMI, VBUF)
            Return (VBUF)
        }
(the DSDT for N73SV seems the same)

Details from the ACPI spec v5 about _ROM (sect. B.3.3 _ROM (Get ROM Data)):

BIOS support.
Arguments: (2)
Arg0 – An Integer containing the offset of the display device ROM data
Arg1 – An Integer containing the size of the buffer to fill in (up to 4K).
Return Value:
A Buffer containing the requested ROM data

There haven't been any big changes in the nouveau_acpi code (last noticable
update was on 17 December 2011, most recent code only initialized a variable,
but it does not affect the ROM detection code), so it's possibly some change in
the ACPI (acpica) subsystem.
