request_firmware() outputs an error message if the firmware file does
not exist, whereas request_firmware_direct() doesn't. Since the
firmware file can be in one of two locations, that seems to be the
most appropriate behavior.

However, request_firmware_direct() also does not invoke the userspace
helper. In the case of Nouveau I don't believe we need this, but if I
overlooked something let me know and I will think of something else.
