Description of changes

As per NVIDIA/open-gpu-kernel-modules#256 (comment) the proprietary nvidia driver is currently incompatible with the X86_KERNEL_IBT kernel option due to their customized compiler pipeline.

It looks like that kernel option might be enabled by default in linux 6.2 (https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-IBT-By-Default-Tip) so preemptively mark the package as broken since that version of linux.

This does not affect the open variant of the driver, since that uses the regular compiler pipeline provided by nixpkgs.
