More or less agree but the transitional file should be better named
migrate-nvidia-435. Reason is that if named transitionals it will be handled
incorrectly if your variant does not contain --. Also I would not put
dkms-versions into the lrm patch. This is matched anyway to what the kernel tree
contains when we crank.
