A variety of tweaks to the NVIF library interfaces, mostly ripping out
things that turned out to be not so useful.
- Removed refcounting from nvif_object, callers are expected to not be
stupid instead.
- nvif_client is directly reachable from anything derived from nvif_object,
removing the need for heuristics to locate it
- _new() versions of interfaces, that allocate memory for the object
they construct, have been removed. The vast majority of callers used
the embedded _init() interfaces.
- No longer storing constructor arguments (and the data returned from
nvkm) inside nvif_object, it's more or less unused and just wastes
memory.

We previously assumed that the values "2" and "4" were new in DCB 4.1,
however, there's at least one GM107 DCB 4.0 board (Quadro K620) that
uses the newer values.

The namespace of NVKM is being changed to nvkm_ instead of nouveau_,
which will be used for the DRM part of the driver. This is being
done in order to make it very clear as to what part of the driver a
given symbol belongs to, and as a minor step towards splitting the
DRM driver out to be able to stand on its own (for virt).
Because there's already a large amount of churn here anyway, this is
as good a time as any to also switch to NVIDIA's device and chipset
naming to ease collaboration with them.
A comparison of objdump disassemblies proves no code changes.

NVKM is having it's namespace switched to nvkm_, which will conflict
with these functions (which are workarounds for the fact that as of
yet, we still aren't able to split DRM and NVKM completely).

The full object interfaces are about to be exposed to userspace, so we
need to check for any security-related issues and version the structs
to make it easier to handle any changes we may need in the future.

Upcoming mobile Kepler GPUs (such as GK20A) use the platform bus instead
of PCI to which Nouveau is tightly dependent. This patch allows Nouveau
to handle platform devices by:
- abstracting PCI-dependent functions that were typically used for
resource querying and page mapping,
- introducing a nv_device_is_pci() function that allows to make
PCI-dependent code conditional,
- providing a nouveau_drm_platform_probe() function that takes a GPU
platform device to be probed.
Core code as well as engine/subdev drivers are updated wherever possible
to make use of these functions. Some older drivers are too dependent on
PCI to be properly updated, but all newer code on which future chips may
depend should at least be runnable with platform devices.

It'd be pretty awesome if someone would care enough to port this all
properly to a class interface, perhaps submitting a command stream to
the core via a sw object on PFIFO (emulating how EVO works basically,
and also what nvidia have done forever..)..
But, this seems unlikely given how old this hardware is now, so, lets
just hide it away.
There's a heap of other bits and pieces laying around that are still
tangled. I'll (re)move them in pieces.

Commit 767baf82 drm/nouveau: remove some more unnecessary legacy bios code
has introduced a regression my misplacing the code that sets the major/chip
versions, which are used whist parsing the bmp/bit structure in vbios
