Subject: drm/nouveau/device: return error for unknown chipsets
From: Karol Herbst <kherbst@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit c3e0276c31ca8c7b8615da890727481260d4676f upstream.
Previously the code relied on device->pri to be NULL and to fail probing
later. We really should just return an error inside nvkm_device_ctor for
unsupported GPUs.
