Looks like I need to recompile the Nvidia driver kernel module because for some reason it didn't happen when it should have, and now the kernel refuses to load it.
In Ubuntu I do it like this:

sudo dkms remove -k 4.11.0-11-generic -m nvidia-384/384.47 
sudo dkms install -k 4.11.0-11-generic -m nvidia-384/384.47

It should be similar in Manjaro, just replace the kernel and Nvidia driver versions with yours and it should work. If not, you can simply remove the Nvidia driver and install it back, this will definitely cause the kernel module to be recompiled.
