Bug Description
After the latest kernel update for wily, to 4.2.0-29, i can no longer load the nvidia-352 driver. After noticing it was not being loaded on boot, i used `modprobe nvidia` to try loading it manually, and got an error:
> modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia_352': Invalid argument
I found the following in my kern.log file:

I have also booted into kernel 4.2.0-28 and the driver was initially not found (i had been running 4.2.0-27 previously, installed -28, but not bothered to reboot until after the -29 update). I used `apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-352` and then the driver loaded with no problem. I tried the same after booting back into the -29 kernel, but still no luck.
