Non-legacy devices may not always support mode-setting functionality, so create the primary minor conditionally.
One setup where this happens is the Tegra K1, where the Tegra DRM driver exposes the display engine via standard KMS IOCTLs, and nouveau drives the Kepler-type GPU that has no display capabilities.

There's a lot of code accessing dev->primary for debug messages (to print stuff like "error on card0: bla"). I just want to make sure you checked for all that. I tried renaming "->primary" to "->primary2" locally just to find these and I doubt this is safe for most drivers. I haven't looked for nouveau in particular, though. Anyhow, the patch is the right thing to do.
Thanks David
