> No you can use Wayland as long as your window manager/environment supports GBM.

You can do that on Intel and AMD drivers and other open source graphics drivers, which due to being open source allow 3rd parties like redhat to patch in GBM support in drivers and mesa when required.

Nvidia driver does not support GBM code paths. Therefore wayland does not work on nvidia. And because nvidia driver is not open source, someone else cannot patch GBM in.
