Description Juan Magallon 2017-12-22 15:40:10 CET 
The nVidia current driver does not build with new kernel.
Some function does not get declared:

error: implicit declaration of function 'task_stack_page'; did you mean 'task_stack_vm_area'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  unsigned long __ptr = (unsigned long)task_stack_page(task);

Fix can be found here:
http://www.hlmjr.com/MoM/nvidia-driver-384.98-kernel-4.14.html

Tested and working.

Already fixed in nvidia-current-384.98-2.mga7

I will wait a bit before doing the same for mga6
