Bug 288314: graphics/nvidia-drm-kmod: Need 14.3-RELEASE build
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=288314



--- Description ---
Due to a late change to the DRM KBI, the 14.2-RELEASE versions of the
Nvidia-drm-kmod modules do not load on 14.3-RELEASE -- they error out with
"link_elf_obj: symbol linux_kfree_async undefined" when loaded.

No 14.3-RELEASE versions have appeared in the FreeBSD-kmods repository, thus
breaking Wayland compositors. It's been broken for 2+ months now.

Please build and post 14.3-RELEASE builds of the Nvidia-drm-kmod packages to
the FreeBSD-kmods repository so Wayland and other nvidia-drm consumers will run
again on 14.3-RELEASE.
