Bug description:
  [Impact]

  * The 3.13 trusty backport kernel for 12.04 will be released fairly
  soon.  Some people have started testing the daily builds out the the
  Kernel Team PPA.  However the NVIDIA binary drivers in precise need
  patches to support the 3.13 kernel.

  [Test Case]

   * The latest Nvidia binary driver series in 12.04 should work with
  the upcomping 3.13 backport kernel; it currently does not.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Low.  The patches enable compatibility with newer kernels but do
  not affect installations on older kernels.
