Not necessary, the fallback drivers are added to the list later anyway.

Still need to keep nv here.

I don't think this needs to be quite that complex.  If the chip is not
supported by the first driver it'll just fail in pciprobe and you'll try
the second one, and if that doesn't work either then you'll get vesa or
fbdev.  No need to replicate each driver's probe logic in the server.
