Bug description:
  Upstream patch: https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-drivers-
  common/commit/2a56dab2b4dc6fe4e4c38d1d865623d2f8f4a775,
  https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-drivers-
  common/commit/a7231c0d4d2f14569870c862bd2a1954d4f04cc7

  SRU Justification:

  [ Impact ]

  The help text for the --gpgpu flag was improved in
  https://launchpad.net/bugs/2081881, but it still did not capture the
  fact that the ERD/gpgpu variant of the driver is required for some
  server applications.

  [ Fix ]

  I have made the gpgpu flag help text more clear in
  https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-drivers-
  common/commit/2a56dab2b4dc6fe4e4c38d1d865623d2f8f4a775 and
  https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-drivers-
  common/commit/a7231c0d4d2f14569870c862bd2a1954d4f04cc7

  [ Test Plan ]

  Ensure that the correct help text is shown when running `ubuntu-
  drivers -h`

  [ Where problems could occur ]

  This shouldn't introduce any functional issues within ubuntu-drivers itself, 
since this is just a help text change.
  (However, if some other application depends on the output of `ubuntu-drivers 
-h`, this could introduced undefined behavior)
