[PATCH] drm/nouveau/devinit/gf100-: try to avoid double-running vbios scripts

Turns out some VBIOSes don't actually set the bit in question in 2240c.
Use the nv50-style detection to try avoiding running the vbios twice.

Fixes: a6a0f67ca7aa ("drm/nouveau/devinit/gf100-: detect if BIOS invoked devinit")
Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97620
Cc: stable at vger.kernel.org # v4.6+

Not sure if this is safe to do esp on GM20x+ boards?
