I'd say it's up to you which version(s) you want to add support for, as long as support for already supported HW is preserved (by using a version selection). So if you add support for the open kernel modules, which means only support for Ampere platforms is added, that's fine by me. BTW, instead of a version selection, we could also decide to introduce a separate package. Maybe rename nvidia-driver to nvidia-driver-legacy, or something similar, and add a new nvidia-driver package. This would be sensible if the packages are radically different in their "build" process for example. I prefer two separate and simple packages than a single convoluted package that supports two versions, but with in fact nothing shared between the two versions supported.
