Latest nvidia 370.23 driver is unhappy with 'rt_mutex_destroy' and the 
extramodule fails to build with

FATAL: modpost: GPL-incompatible module nvidia-drm.ko uses GPL-only 
symbol 'rt_mutex_destroy'

This concerns 4.6.5_rt10 aswell as 4.4.17_rt25 at least
What can we do about that?

kind regards
Bernhard Landauer

This is not -RT only related. An unpatched kernel should have the same
problem. The EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(mutex_destroy) is here since commit
408894ee4dd4 ("[PATCH] mutex subsystem, debugging code") / v2.6.16 by
Ingo Molnar.

You could disable CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES or look for alternatives for this
driver.
