The REINPLACE_CMD at line 160 of nvidia-driver/Makefile is incorrect.

How do I know that?  Because I made a patch which results in a working
nvidia-driver-319.32 with r254050.  That's what I'm running right now.

Here's the patch (loaded with :r in vi, so all spaces etc. are correct):

The primary differences are
1) use kmem_arena instead of kernel_map everywhere.  The REINPLACE_CMD
   uses kernel_arena
2) DO NOT use kva_free, but kmem_free as previously
