Skip the creation of a software channel for GK20A as software methods

How is GK20A different from a nvc0+ card that lacks PDISPLAY (like all
the 3D Controller ones, and I guess even some that come up as VGA
controller in PCI but don't have any outputs in their VBIOS)? i.e.
what's wrong with just doing the same thing that GK1xx does? Note that
there are sw methods that don't deal with display as well.
Well, as it turns out... I have tried reverting this patch and enabling
nvc0_software_oclass for GK20A and things worked like a charm. 0_o
This is definitely different from when I first drafted this patch
series, where a software class could not be used on GK20A due to hard
dependencies on display. But it seems like today's code can accommodate
much better with that situation.
That's great - this will allow us to get rid of this ungraceful patch.
Thanks for making me check it again.
Probably a v3 will be necessary to enable the software class in patch 10
(and fix the byte/word typo in patch 7). I will just wait a bit to see
if this v2 gets more comments before sending it.
