[Nouveau] External monitor support for GTX 1650 (NV167/TU117)

[Andre Costa]

Hi there,

I just bought an Acer Nitro 5 (AN515-44) notebook with an AMD Renoir iGPU
and a GTX 1650 dGPU. I installed Fedora 35 and, for the most part, it's
working great. The only issue so far is that I cannot use Wayland +
external monitor with Nouveau -- it does recognize the external monitor,
but only renders the top half of the screen, the bottom half remains
(literally) blank.

(BTW the HDMI port is wired to the GTX 1650)

For the record, I can use the external monitor just fine with Nvidia's
proprietary driver on X11, but I'd rather use Nouveau if possible.

I know support for the NV160 family is still coming up according to the feature
matrix <https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/FeatureMatrix.html>, so I'll
patiently wait. I just wanted to volunteer to do some testing on this
specific setup if this can help in any way. Just let me know.

Keep up the great work!

Cheers,
Andre
