the point is, it's not checking it by default, so by default you still
run into the windows 8 codepath.

yeah, I tried that at some point and it didn't help either. The reason
we call those from inside Nouveau is to support systems pre _PR where
nouveau invokes custom _DSM calls on its own. We could potentially
