commit eb493fbc15 upstream.
Currently nouveau doesn't actually expose the state debugfs file that's
usually provided for any modesetting driver that supports atomic, even
if nouveau is loaded with atomic=1. This is due to the fact that the
standard debugfs files that DRM creates for atomic drivers is called
when drm_get_pci_dev() is called from nouveau_drm.c. This happens well
before we've initialized the display core, which is currently
responsible for setting the DRIVER_ATOMIC cap.
So, move the atomic option into nouveau_drm.c and just add the
DRIVER_ATOMIC cap whenever it's enabled on the kernel commandline. This
shouldn't cause any actual issues, as the atomic ioctl will still fail
as expected even if the display core doesn't disable it until later in
the init sequence. This also provides the added benefit of being able to
use the state debugfs file to check the current display state even if
clients aren't allowed to modify it through anything other than the
legacy ioctls.
Additionally, disable the DRIVER_ATOMIC cap in nv04's display core, as
this was already disabled there previously.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
