[SRU B/F/G LRM] [PATCH 0/1] LP#1919315 -- nvidia.ko assembly failures on end user systems

[Andy Whitcroft]

We are seeing assembly failures of nvidia modules leading to signature
verification issues.  This is caused indirectly by the CONFIG_MODVERSIONS
option leading to extra (believed benign) commands in the assembly script.
These do not affect the base assembly in the linux-restricted-modules,
but in some cases does affect the identicle assembly on end-users system.
Is it positied that something external to the assembly package is present
on affected systems.

This patch drops the extraneous commands on the end-user systems; they
are required on the primary to ensure we binaries match.

This has been sucessfully tested on the prime kernels for groovy, focal,
and bionic; and on the hwe kernels in focal and bionic.

Proposing for application to all LRM packages.  Note that we only
need to expedite fixes for 5.4 and later kernels as the config changes
were not rolled out to 4.15 (yet).
