nvidia-utils breaks nvidia (pacman upgrade issue)

Just wait for the kernel module to arrive in the repositories.
- Ah that's what it is. Of course!
  
  I recommend switching to nvidia-dkms which will auto rebuild the module for every kernel and lets you update them independently of each other.
This may be unrelated, but I’ve had to downgrade nvidia and nvidia-utils back to 535, because 545 broke “GPU hotplugging” (kernel panics after GPU is released/reinserted after GPU Passthrough to a VM as well as some wine applications. These may be unsupported features though.
I just used an older kernel for a while, did the trick.
