build.log

Nvidia Drivers is failing due overlap of functions added in Kernel 4.7.0 with ones used by Nvidia into the kernel module source code.

Using kernel 4.7.0-rc3, Portage 2.3.0_rc1.

Attached build.log file.

Proposed patch for version 4.7.0

This is the proposed patch I been using since kernel 4.7.0-rc1. should work until Nvidia can fix this issue by themselves, or Linus decides to rename the function, which I don't think so.

Basically what the patch does is renaming the conflicting function into the header and function where is used.
