Thanks to Tomas Pruzina<\/strong>, there is a patch for NVIDIA driver 375.26 with 4.10-rc kernels.\u00a0\u00a0 Details, and the link, are here: https:\/\/devtalk.nvidia.com\/default\/topic\/981993\/linux\/-patches-included-4-10-kernel-staging-\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Easiest way to get the patch is to select ‘Raw’ and just cut\/paste the text..<\/p>\n

I have tested this on kernel 4.10-rc2<\/strong>, and it compiles successfully (with a few warnings):<\/p>\n

As is mentioned, the CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG code is simply ‘bypassed’, as this is very rarely needed by desktop\/workstation users..<\/p>\n
The patch is for 4.10-based kernels only, and is not backwards-compatible, in its current state..<\/p>\n
