may be first revert those two?

https://git.ffmpeg.org/gitweb/ffmpeg.git/commit/05f8b2ca0f7e28775837a572c65ce9218f534ee2


or update ffnvheaders (not sure if it will work for legacy proprietary
driver , something to find out)

https://github.com/FFmpeg/nv-codec-headers/releases


not sure that exactly version? we seems to have 10.x and only updated ones
there (so the potentially include fix for this cudaCurrent change)  are
11.x and 12.x .....
