      o GeForce MX110
      o GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with Max-Q Design
      o Quadro P500

      types of passive adapters (e.g. DMS-59 to VGA or DVI) from

Bug description:
  According to http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4611
  the NVIDIA driver needs to be updated to 384.111 to fix the Spectre
  vulnerabilities in the NVIDIA kernel modules (along with the upcoming
  Kernel security patches).

  I think this update should be pushed ASAP to all support Ubuntu
  releases as a security update.

  It seems so far only CVE-2017-5753 (variant 1) has been addresses and
  a future NVIDIA update will also address CVE-2017-5715 (variant 2)

  Please note there is also a updated version 390.12 for the R390 branch
  in case that is also provided somewhere.
