Added beta-quality support for GeForce and Workstation GPUs to open kernelmodules. Please see the "Open Linux Kernel Modules" chapter in the README for details.

This is stated in the README at https://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/545.23.06/README/kernel_open.html:

Use of the open kernel modules on GeForce and Workstation GPUs should be considered Beta quality in this release and no longer requires setting of the "NVreg_OpenRmEnableUnsupportedGpus" nvidia.ko kernel module parameter. The open kernel modules are suitable for broad usage, and NVIDIA requests feedback on any issues encountered that are specific to them.

Seems pretty interesting, but I'm not pretty sure if when they state geforce they mean for example 1000 series of gpus.
