Nouveau NVKM SEC engine support code

Internal helper code inside the Nouveau open-source NVIDIA GPU driver that handles the SEC (security/crypto) engine block found on certain older GeForce GPUs. It is a sub-component of the NVKM hardware abstraction layer, not a separately loadable driver.

recommendation

This is not actually a standalone driver directory; it is a piece of the Nouveau GPU driver's internal hardware abstraction layer covering NVIDIA's on-GPU SEC engine. Any keep-or-remove decision belongs at the level of the parent Nouveau driver, not here.

codex reasoning notes (technical)

Not a driver directory: internal nouveau NVKM SEC engine support code under a GPU driver, not a standalone kernel-bound hardware driver entrypoint.
