If it breaks the Negativo repo, then yes it is. The Nvidia driver from
that repo is supported and it needs to not break. We've been super
super lenient with allowing kernel updates in the Workstation product,
since it seems to be working well for everyone involved, but that would
need to be reconsidered if a kernel update intentionally breaks an
important subset of our users. (Note: we only support Nvidia if
installed from the Negativo repo, not from anywhere else.)
It sounds like patches are already available, so it shouldn't be a huge
problem to get the Nvidia package updated.
