          Driver ABI earlier than 0.8 to crash when running X11
          applications which call XRenderAddTraps().

      [ Alberto Milone ]
      * New upstream release:
        - Fixed a bug that caused the X server to crash if an OpenGL
          application tried to allocate a drawable when GPU-accessible
          memory is exhausted.
        - Fixed a bug that could cause an Xid error when terminating a
          video playback application using the overlay presentation queue
          in VDPAU.
        - Fixed a rare deadlock condition when running applications that
          use OpenGL in multiple threads on a Quadro GPU.
        - Fixed a kernel memory leak that occurred when looping hardware-
          accelerated video decoding with VDPAU on Maxwell-based GPUs.
        - Fixed a bug that caused the X server to crash if a RandR 1.4
          output provided by a SinkOutput provider was selected as the
          primary output on X.Org xserver 1.17 and higher.
        - Fixed a bug that caused waiting on X Sync Fence objects in
          OpenGL to hang indefinitely in some cases.
        - Fixed a bug that prevented OpenGL from properly recovering from
          hardware errors or sync object waits that had timed out.
      * SECURITY UPDATE:
        - CVE-2015-5950 (LP: #1489391).

        - Allow nvidia-opencl-icd-$flavour to replace nvidia-opencl-icd-331 and
          nvidia-opencl-icd-331-updates for a smooth upgrade.
