I wonder if perhaps we should just replace the mechanism entirely, and
remove the support for nouveau/fuc* as we add "official" support for
NVIDIA's ucode. The existing code is actually partially broken
anyway, and mostly works by luck and was intended as a development aid
/ workaround anyway. There are no chipsets (aside from GM2xx...)
which we don't currently support using our own ucode, so the impact of
removing it will be very minimal.
Thoughts?
