Have you downgraded your compiler? If so, then your problem is a duplicate of:
https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/issues/415
https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/issues/429

The key is the following error message in your dmesg:
[   55.466493] nvidia: Unknown symbol mcount (err 0)

nvidia then fails to load.
