  * New upstream release:
    - Updated the nvidia-drm kernel module for compatibility with the
      removal of the DRIVER_PRIME flag in recent Linux kernel
      versions.
    - Updated nvidia-bug-report.sh to search the systemd journal for
      gdm-x-session logs.

      server.
    - Fixed a build failure, "too many arguments to function
      'get_user_pages'", when building the NVIDIA kernel module for

      do_gettimeofday", when building the NVIDIA kernel module for
