That would be noticed like right away though?

Not saying they won't do it but I bet if it isn't some quite deep rarely used stuff in the drivers, security people will find out quickly?

    Not necessarily and especially if it's at the hardware level.

    If there's an exploit baked into the drivers then it's entirely possible it may not be noticed for some time - doubly so if it's closed source. But likely that it will be eventually.

    Anything at the hardware/firmware level and it could take ages before anyone finds it, if they do at all.

    Mining stuff draws power like mad, and needs to connect to a server somewhere, both are very easy to spot.
