I tried systemctl stop nvidia-persistenced nvidia-persistenced --no-persistence-mode nvidia-smi --persistence-mode=Disabled but none of them helped. nvidia-smi failed because it couldn't communicate with the nvidia driver.
The system was created using a raw disk in a virtual machine (VirtualBox). I then booted off the disk so it was running for real, and accepted the offered nvidia drivers. Finally, I shutdown and restarted in the VM. That is the context for the loop. The VM has no nvidia hardware, and so obviously there is no reason for the driver to load.
