dahdi-linux fails to build with the latest 5.19 kernel on kinetic

[Andrea Righi]

[Impact]

dahdi-linux fails to build on the latest 5.19 kernel with the following error:

  CC [M] /var/lib/dkms/dahdi/2.11.1~dfsg-1ubuntu11/build/drivers/dahdi/wct4xxp/base.o
/var/lib/dkms/dahdi/2.11.1~dfsg-1ubuntu11/build/drivers/dahdi/wct4xxp/base.c:45:10: fatal error: stdbool.h: No such file or directory
   45 | #include <stdbool.h>
      | ^~~~~~~~~~~

[Test case]

$ sudo apt install dahdi-dkms

[Fix]

Provide a patch to properly support the new 5.19 ABI.

[Regression potential]

We may notice regressions in dahdi in kernels >= 5.18.

[Andrea Righi (arighi)]

Fix to build dahdi-dkms with kernels >= 5.18 in the attached debdiff.

[Andrea Righi (arighi)]

debdiff to support dahdi-dkms in jammy with the new kernel 5.19 (we can simply resync with the packet in kinetic, because it is identical and the only difference is the patch to support kernel 5.19, that is what we want in jammy as well now).
