** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  These releases provide both bug fixes and new features, and we would like to
  make sure all of our users have access to these improvements.
  
  See the changelog entry below for a full list of changes and bugs.
  
  [Test Case]
  The following development and SRU process was followed:
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NVidiaUpdates
  
  Certification test suite must pass on a range of hardware:
  https://git.launchpad.net/plainbox-provider-sru/tree/units/sru.pxu
  
  The QA team that executed the tests will be in charge of attaching the
  artifacts and console output of the appropriate run to the bug. nVidia
  maintainers team members will not mark ‘verification-done’ until this
  has happened.
  
  [Regression Potential]
  In order to mitigate the regression potential, the results of the
  aforementioned system level tests are attached to this bug.
  
  [Discussion]
  
  440.82:
-   * [TO BE COMPLETED]
    * New upstream release:
      - Added a workaround for Steam Play title DOOM Eternal, which
        overrides application requested memory locations, to ensure
        performance-critical resources be placed in video memory.
      - Allow presenting from queue families which only expose
        VK_QUEUE_COMPUTE_BIT when using XCB in addition to Xlib
        surfaces.
      - Fixed a bug that caused render-offloaded applications to crash
        on exit.
      - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release
        candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with
        error "implicit declaration of function 'timespec_to_ns'".
      - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release
        candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with
        error "implicit declaration of function 'getrawmonotonic'".
      - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release
        candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with
        error "implicit declaration of function 'timespec_to_ns'".
      - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release
        candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with
        error "implicit declaration of function 'getrawmonotonic'".
      - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release
        candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with
        error "implicit declaration of function 'getnstimeofday'".
      - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release
        candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with
        error "dereferencing pointer to incomplete type 'struct
        timeval'".
      - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release
        candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with
        error "implicit declaration of function 'jiffies_to_timespec'".
      - Fixed driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release
        candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with
        error "passing argument 4 of 'proc_create_data' from
        incompatible pointer type".
