Please unblock package nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-173xx

All changes from nvidia-graphics-drivers that recently migrated to
testing (or are at least unblocked) and are applicable to the legacy
drivers as well have been merged into 173.14.35-4 to apply the fixes and
keep the packaging in sync:

  * Synchronize packaging with nvidia-graphics-drivers 304.37-1:
    - 3.6_kernel.patch: New patch to fix compilation with Linux 3.6, taken
      from rpmfusion.
  * Adjust 3.6_kernel.patch for a different filename in legacy-173xx.

(this trivial patch is no longer in n-g-d since it was fixed in newer
upstream releases)

  * Synchronize packaging with nvidia-graphics-drivers 304.48-2:
    - libgl1-nvidia-legacy-173xx-glx-ia32: readd
      Depends: libgl1-nvidia-alternatives-ia32 to prevent apt from removing
      libgl1-nvidia-alternatives-ia32 (which would remove the diversions)
      while the old (pre-transitional) libgl1-nvidia-legacy-173xx-glx-ia32 is
      still installed.
    - get-orig-source: Fix caching for legacy drivers.
    - bug-control: Report version info about revived
      libgl1-nvidia-legacy-96xx-glx-ia32.
    - Upgrade nvidia-settings relationship from Suggests to Recommends and use
      a substvar for the name of the compatible nvidia-settings package.
    - There is no need to exclude squeeze-backports from using xz compression.
  * Use nvidia-settings-legacy-173xx as the name of the compatible
    nvidia-settings package.
  * Synchronize packaging with nvidia-graphics-drivers 304.60-1:
    - libgl1-nvidia-legacy-173xx-glx:i386: Breaks: ia32-libs (<< 1:0),
      versioning was fixed.
    - Fix missing legacy substitution.
    - conftest.h:
      - Implement checks for linux/efi.h and linux/nvmap.h (310.14).
      - Implement new conftest.sh functions outer_flush_all, nvmap_support,
        and efi_enabled (310.14).
  * Synchronize packaging with nvidia-graphics-drivers 304.60-2:
    - build-module-packages.sh: Build modules only for the variant (current or
      legacy-abcxx) that shipped the script.
  * Synchronize packaging with nvidia-graphics-drivers 304.64-1:
    - conftest.h: Implement new conftest.sh function set_memory_array_uc.
    - build-module-packages.sh: Build modules only for the variant (current or
      legacy-abcxx) that shipped the script.
  * Synchronize packaging with nvidia-graphics-drivers 304.64-2:
    - Always use the upstream changelog from the x86_64 release to avoid minor
      differences causing multiarch conflicts.

(all changes up to here were unblocked (#688698) and migrated with 304.64-3)

  * Synchronize packaging with nvidia-graphics-drivers 304.64-4:
    - kernel-3.7.patch: New patch to fix compilation with Linux 3.7 (which
      replaced VM_RESERVED by VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP).
  * Adjust kernel-3.7.patch for a different filename in legacy-173xx.

(this has been unblocked: #697838)

  * Synchronize packaging with nvidia-graphics-drivers 304.64-5:
    - Fix debian/module/debian/kernel-version to cope with
      $KSRC/linux/version.h being moved to
      $KSRC/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h in Linux 3.7.

This is the only change not yet in nvidia-graphics-drivers/sid, (so far
only in experimental). A trivial followup to kernel-3.7.patch. #696570
The kernel-version script is only needed by the nvidia-kernel-source
package which builds the module packages with module-assistant.
