Am I correct in reading posts 3 and 4 - the only way to get the broadcom wireless driver to compile against a 5.8 low-latecy kernel is to build a custom kernel?

I am away from the machine at the moment, but I suspect simply adding voluntary-preemption=on to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub will not work unless the kernel has been compiled with the correct "Preemption Model".

What has the "Preemption Model" got to do with GPL symbols in the kernel header files?
