Updated https://github.com/rhabbachi/displaylink-pkgbuild with @PlusMinus suggestions.

The thing is AFAIK This module is not functional using the latest 4.7 kernel that is the current kernel in Arch.

> Maybe it makes more sense to put evdi into another package. In a more generic case I would 100% agree. But for this package I'm not really sure. Will the eventual evdi package be installed without this package? And what will this package (displaylink) depend on? should all the evdi packages `provides= "evdi"`? I think to mitigate the confusion that might arise we can keep this package using the default evdi module provided by the displaylink site and create another package (displaylink-latest-evdi or something similar) that uses the latest evdi module.

Thanks for the effort @rhabbachi I added some inline comments on your git.

The 1.68 displayed on the website seems to have the same checksum as the 1.62 (the .run file included). There are available patches to make evdi compile in 4.7 (on github)
