New issue by xAlpharax on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/50054

Description:
### Is this a new report?

Yes

### System Info

Void 6.8.7_1 x86_64

### Package(s) Affected

nvidia-*

### Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

_No response_

### Expected behaviour

The NVIDIA driver ships with a service for dynamically changing the power cap the GPU has based on load (crucial for MAX Q GPUs). This service is called nvidia-powerd, and it should be up when the system boots.

### Actual behaviour

In driver versions newer than 535.154.05 (see https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/commits/master/srcpkgs/nvidia for the versions that I am talking about) the nvidia-powerd service is down and refuses to start, or better said, it starts and immediately crashes/stops (what I believe happens)

### Steps to reproduce

1. Make sure to have a version of nvidia newer than 535.154.05
2. Enable the nvidia-powerd service (on GPUs other than MAX Q variants it won't change the power cap, so there isn't supposed to be an effect of it being up or down but you can still see in the following step whether it is working correctly or not)
3. Run `sudo sv status nvidia-powerd` and see that the service is down
