 x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-355.11-r2 says kernel-4.3 or greater are not supported yet.
Gentoo supports kernels which are supported by NVIDIA"
"which are limited to the following kernels:"
"<sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-4.3"
"<sys-kernel/vanilla-sources-4.3"

Unmask 358.16-r1 and you won't have an issue.  They maybe beta but its better than using that fix I personally think.

 

Just add

=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-358.16-r1

to your /etc/portage/package.unmask file and emerge it.
