I'm happy to take this patch as-is. I do wonder if we should do something like this though: if (nouveau_boolopt(device->cfgopt, "NvGrUseFW", oclass->fecs.ucode == NULL)) Which will automatically switch to external firmware if there's no internal implementation available. Thoughts? This could be a separate patch even, if preferred.
