I just did a 0-day NMU, but I'm not sure if that was still in time to
migrate before the hard freeze.

 hashcat-meta (20180828+nmu1) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Non-maintainer upload.
   * Demote nvidia-smi dependency to Recommends.
   * Add legacy-390xx packages as alternative dependencies.

I did not switch from arch:all to arch:some, as that might require a
trip through NEW ...

Anyway, I hope that the driver will be force-hinted earlier via #922974
