Maxim most likely you are tired of hearing this, but the shader PLL in many
cases is disabled(-ish)
Either by nv_wr32(dev, (nv_rd32(dev, 0x4020) & ~0x80000000)), or by the
0xc040 register (don't remember the exact bit)
Whereas for the unk_05 the logic of the blob has been changed in it's recent
versions - i.e. blob v195.xx the numbers(P/M/N) where the same as the nouveau
