I had a go at merging the changes from 343.22-1 in Debian experimental.
The result is available in my PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~ginggs/+archive/ubuntu/arm-testing
and the debdiff is attached.  The armhf build runs fine on an NVIDIA Jetson TK1 board.

Moving forward, I think it would be easier to maintain if we started with the Debian packaging (I think it can be used with only minor changes to debian/control) and then merged in the Ubuntu patches.
Upstream have released version 346.47 and I can look at updating the Debian package to that version.
Is there still time to get this into Vivid?

Title:
  FTBFS: hwloc-contrib 1.9-1 build-depends on unavailable package
  libxnvctrl-dev

Status in hwloc-contrib package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in nvidia-settings package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hwloc-contrib 1.9-1 currently fails to build because it depends on
  libxnvctrl-dev which is not available.

  Package libxnvctrl-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
  This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
  is only available from another source
  However the following packages replace it:
    nvidia-settings

  E: Package 'libxnvctrl-dev' has no installation candidate
  apt-get failed.

  For more details, see

  In Debian, libxnvctrl-dev is part of the nvidia-settings package
  (http://packages.qa.debian.org/n/nvidia-settings.html). However, this
  is not synced since Ubuntu has its own nvidia-settings package
  (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-settings), though that
  does not offer the binary package which hwloc-contrib needs.
