I tested the package on a generic 5.15 kernel and I realized it won't build at all because the exclusive kernel rule won't match 5.15 anymore because of the extra space added.
A new fix is required to solve this.

I attached a new debdiff with the proper fix.

Tested on a VM with 5.15.0-57-generic: It should build
ubuntu@jammy:~/rtl$ sudo dpkg -i rtl8821ce-dkms_5.5.2.1-0ubuntu11~0.22.04.3_all.deb

Also tested on a VM with linux-kvm. I should not build because modules is not there

Skipped.

and on jammy:5.19. It should not build because it's a 5.19 not 5.15 kernel:
