Changes:
* update to recent 810.11
* fix power source detection (AC/battery) - binary NVIDIA X.org driver uses wrong matching pattern for ACAD notify events
* add some hints for power saving
Zander from www.nvnews.net (NVIDIA) have just confirmed that the bug with power source detection is in their bugreport system now. Hope it will be fixed in upcoming release.

+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+To configure GPU and memory clock control for power saving and max performance
+you may put "RegistryDwords" option into appropriate NVIDIA "Device" section
+of your xorg.conf file and reload nvidia.ko module or reboot.
+
+Common examples:
+
+ * on battery - max power saving, on AC - max performance
+ Option "RegistryDwords" "PowerMizerEnable=0x1; PerfLevelSrc=0x2222; PowerMizerDefault=0x3; PowerMizerDefaultAC=0x1;"
+
+ * on battery - max power saving, on AC: adaptive strategy
+ Option "RegistryDwords" "PowerMizerEnable=0x1; PerfLevelSrc=0x2233; PowerMizerDefault=0x3;"
+
+ * on battery - adaptive strategy, on AC - max performance
+ Option "RegistryDwords" "PowerMizerEnable=0x1; PerfLevelSrc=0x3322; PowerMizerDefaultAC=0x1;"
+
+ * adaptive strategy for any power source
+ Option "RegistryDwords" "PowerMizerEnable=0x1; PerfLevelSrc=0x3333;"
