Nvidia persistent isn't persistent through driver upgrades on Linux

We have unattended upgrade set up on our servers to keep things up to date.

Every upgrade /lib/systemd/system/nvidia-persistenced.service gets replaced with the new packages version of this file which by default has

ExecStart=/usr/bin/nvidia-persistenced --user nvidia-persistenced --no-persistence-mode --verbose

rather than

ExecStart=/usr/bin/nvidia-persistenced --user nvidia-persistenced --persistence-mode --verbose

What are the options for keeping this option static?
