GK20A's timer is directly attached to the system timer and cannot be
calibrated. Skip the calibration phase on that chip since the
corresponding registers do not exist.

I'm concerned that this won't scale in the future. Perhaps a better
solution would be to add a "flags" or "features" field to struct
nouveau_device along with feature bits such as HAS_CALIBRATION or
similar.

That way we don't have to touch this code for every new future Tegra
chip. Unless perhaps if there's a reason to expect things to change in
newer generations.
I've already handled this in a slightly different way in the tree I'd
previously pointed Alex at (I think!), as I needed to do the same for
GM107.

Should just be able to use that implementation (so, just change the
probe patch) here too.

I will skip this patch and use your implementation then. Btw,
shouldn't the source file for the GK20A implementation be named nvea.c
instead of gk20a.c?
For the Maxwell stuff I've been using "gm107" now too.  Since we're
working with you guys these days it seems better to use the same names
for things ;)

So would you like us to use the same naming scheme as well? So far all my patches use "nvea.c" whenever I need to add code.
