The kernel header have alls been install upto now (Missing depend for)

doing apt-get install linux-headers-5.17.0-1020-oem cause the dkms to build and install.

sound like a missing depend 5.17 stuff version 5.15.

The 5.15 installed the header for every upgraded kernel version but when the apt installed the
5.17 kernel it did not install the kernel headers.
