modeco80 2d13268eb6 chore: Split vgpu_unlock-rs package
It never really made sense being in the nvidia-merged package; I just left it there
because a previous packager made the mistake (techinically by making it a seperate package
in that group I did improve the situation slightly, but only slightly.)

nvidia-merged

This is NVIDIA vGPU R16 horribly hacked to build and work on up to Linux 6.11, along with vgpu_unlock and vgpu_unlock-rs.

Building

NOTICE: the vGPU VFIO module needs CONFIG_IOMMUFD=n to function properly. No Arch pre-built kernels, to my knowledge, are built with this config option set correctly, so you will have to build your own kernel.

The nvidia vgpu_unlock patched and merged driver are in packages/nvidia-merged.

vgpu_unlock-rs is in packages/vgpu-unlock-rs.

makepkg will by default build with linux 6.1x patches.

To disable them, use _use_new_patches="false" makepkg. This is useful if you're not using a upstream kernel, since the later patches break building on older kernels.
