Multiple issues after upgrade

I think all the following issues came after an upgrade but can't be sure, my working system was about 24hours ago.
I have multiple problems and no idea if they are linked or not:
    - use-after-free in nvidia drive in kernel 5.5, not present in LTS. I tried to build on 5.6 but the dkms build failed. Searching on nvidia forums seems to say that the bug is not fatal
    - No mouse. I use ckb-next to manage the hardware buttons of it.
    - Pulseaudio does work
    - When I try to reboot I have an error that I don't have enough privileges, first time it happens to me. It works just fine in root (as should be expected).
The only thing that looks like a problem is the use after free
Does anybody know how could these issues be related, or what could have messed up all these things (and how to fix it ...)

Re: Multiple issues after upgrade

What was in the upgrade? (post your /var/log/pacman.log) Post the journal from an affected session, use a pastebin if you need to.

What is "use after free"?

Mod note: Moving to NC.

Re: Multiple issues after upgrade

Here is the log from dmesg: https://pastebin.com/7hXfnYKG. It is the same kind of error than described in https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topi … te-kernel/. Here are the relevant (I think) logs: https://pastebin.com/DfVhiztA (EDIT: Sorry I missed a day, did not see it was more than midnight)
