[Bug 1681566] [NEW] nvidia-375 DKMS module not recompiled on upgrade to 17.04

[Jeremy Soller]

Public bug reported:

When upgrading from 16.10 to 17.04 using `update-manager -d`, the
`nvidia-375` DKMS modules are not compiled for the new kernel.

The result is that the user must run `apt install --reinstall
nvidia-375` and reboot.

To reproduce this:

- Clean install of 16.10 on a system with NVIDIA graphics
- Install `nvidia-375`
- Run `update-manager -d`, complete all steps, then reboot
- You will be unable to login until running `apt install --reinstall nvidia-375`

** Affects: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Confirmed
