I could build these myself when I push a new version, because there
aren't many of them. I don't think it makes sense to bother with the
nvidia module because it would be a bit silly to mix it with grsecurity.

grsecurity almost always follows the point releases of the previous
kernel version longer than Arch keeps them around, so any real work to
migrate to the new kernel version would already be done and easily
copied over.
