GK20A does not embed a dedicated COPY engine and thus cannot allocate the copy channel that nouveau_accel_init() attempts to create. It also lacks any display hardware, so the creation of a software channel does not apply neither.
Perhaps this should be two separate patches?

This would be another good candidate for a feature flag.
arg0 = NVE0_CHANNEL_IND_ENGINE_GR;
arg1 = 1;

The formatting here is somewhat weird. From a brief look I couldn't find any indication that nouveau deviates from the standard coding style, so this should be:
} else if (...) {
- /* Need to figure out how to handle sw for gk20a */
- if (device->chipset == 0xea)
goto skip_sw_init;
The commit message makes it sound like SW isn't needed since gk20a "lacks any display hardware". In that case the comment here doesn't make much sense.
