[PATCH 3/3] drm/nouveau: Shut down GPU on kernel shutdown

A little while ago I sent some patches to try to fix issues with
initializing the GM107 GPU with nouveau on the ThinkPad P50. The issues
I was witnessing were rather bizarre: seemingly at random, initializing
the GPU would fail with failed mthds from disp that nouveau had not
actually kicked through the evo channel yet. Example:
[ 1.603467] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: disp: outp 02:0006:0f48: aux power -> demand
[ 1.603931] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: disp: outp 03:0002:0f48: no heads (0 3 2)

These failures would also occur /before/ nouveau had actually pushed
anything to the evo channel. Then, later the rest of the GPU would start
failing like so:

Originally I had a good bit of trouble even reproducing this issue
whatsoever. I've since then managed to figure out a reproducer that
seems to work about 70% of the time:
- Boot the machine while docked, load nouveau
- Undock the machine, wait for nouveau to go into runtime suspend
- Reboot the machine. If done correctly, you should be able to see
nouveau briefly resume itself before the shutdown finishes
- On the next boot, the following should happen (if it doesn't, go back
to step one):
- If nouveau isn't loaded within 10-20 seconds of booting, you will
probably see an unclaimed interrupt warning.
- Once nouveau is loaded, you'll see the symptoms I've described here
At first I assumed that the BIOS was probably trying to probe for
displays before loading the OS, leaving us with a GPU in a funky
sort-of-on state. I tried some solutions that involved shutting down the
various display channels that were left on, but eventually discovered
that we were starting off with more then just disp channels left on: the
entire gr was left on as well. Additionally; it was pointed out to me by
Ben Skeggs that the BIOS doesn't make any use of evo channels anyway.
After some investigation we found the real cause of the problem, and
unfortunately it's far worse than leaving a few channels on: the version
of the BIOS on this P50 appears to have a bug which makes it so that on
full system reboots, the dedicated GPU somehow does not always get power
cycled. In fact, it's even left in nearly the same state it was in
before we finished rebooting! How awful.
While it's quite clear there's one rather impressive BIOS bug going on
here that needs to get fixed, we can at least solve most of the symptoms
of this issue by making nouveau a little better about cleaning up after
itself on kernel shutdowns/reboots. This is something nouveau is going
to need to be able to do if it's ever going to be used for things like
PCI passthrough anyway, since we want to avoid passing the GPU around
from VM guest to VM host if it's still half-way initialized.
Luckily I have some contacts at Lenovo, so I will be bringing this up
and referencing this patch to make sure that this gets fixed properly in
the P50 BIOS as well, especially since not having this fixed in the BIOS
means it's possible for us to fail to reboot if we put both the card and
the kernel into a bad state and require a full reboot. But until then,
this patch should make the problem significantly less noticeable.
For reference, the BIOS version on this P50 is version 1.52.

[omitting Cc to stable. I'd /love/ to get this into a stable kernel, but
unfortunately there's too many large changes this depends on to do that]
