I ported this to use DKMS if anyone is interested. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-bl-dkms/

In the PKGBUILD the two entries must be changed as follows:
mkdir -p "${pkgdir}"/usr/lib/modules/extramodules-ARCH/
install -m 644 nvidia_bl.ko "${pkgdir}"/usr/lib/modules/extramodules-ARCH/nvidia_bl.ko

Could you please add linux-lts as one of the options for "linux>=3.8"? It is currently at 4.14.23 so it obviously satisfies the requirement.

Having to reinstall kernel modules after every kernel upgrade is expected.

@grim_sleepless: I have to reinstall nvidia-bl every time I do a kernel upgrade in order to have the module working. HTH.

Hi, I am running this package on kernel 4.10, and it is unable to load the module on boot. Any idea why?
I am running a the latest Nvidia drivers : 378.13.

@bacondropped
Thanks for your effort :)
Patch and new package didn't work for me :(
I have nvidia Geforce 410M Card, latest Kernel Linux 4.8.13-1-ARCH x86_64, with latest NVIDIA Driver Version: 375.26 installed
any tip to fix brightness controller?
Thanks in advance :)

@nagar
This package now includes the patch, but just for posterity, here's how you would patch a package:
1) Clone the package with git
2) Apply the patch
3) Build and install the package with makepkg
So, in this case you'd do something like this:
$ cd /tmp
$ git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/nvidia-bl.git
$ cd nvidia-bl
$ curl --silent https://gist.githubusercontent.com/bacondropped/fdb1e71228dd4b100a8e9304f95d465a/raw/6f26b3dc3d436a436b415b71fc77a2bb670b74f5/nvidia-bl-0.17.3-linux4.8fix-3bea3c4.patch | patch -Np1
$ makepkg -ci
< makepkg builds the package and prompts you to install it >
