Will be utilised in upcoming commits to remove the need for heuristics
to lookup the device a subdev belongs to.

Only a handful of machines have this enabled by default, where it's been
proven to work. The workaround can be explicitly enabled with a module
option also.
Still waiting on feedback from NVIDIA for a proper idea of exactly what
this fix is doing, and how to implement it properly.

The namespace of NVKM is being changed to nvkm_ instead of nouveau_,
which will be used for the DRM part of the driver. This is being
done in order to make it very clear as to what part of the driver a
given symbol belongs to, and as a minor step towards splitting the
DRM driver out to be able to stand on its own (for virt).
Because there's already a large amount of churn here anyway, this is
as good a time as any to also switch to NVIDIA's device and chipset
naming to ease collaboration with them.
A comparison of objdump disassemblies proves no code changes.
