Whenever we have an Ubuntu release that can have two mainline kernels, and the issue is a module FTBFS, we need to test the updated dkms build in both the GA kernel and the HWE one. Since this was not requested in the approved test plan for this SRU, I did it manually for jammy.

I thus verified that:
a) old dkms builds and loads with jammy's GA kernel
b) old dkms fails to build with jammy's HWE kernel
c) new dkms builds and loads with jammy's GA kernel
d) new dkms builds and loads with jammy's HWE kernel (the original test plan).

I also note that the test plan was not updated with the recommendation from comment #7, i.e., instructions on how to install the HWE kernel (and headers) in jammy. I myself always struggle with finding the correct kernel packages among the hundreds variants we have in the archive. For posterity, these were the packages to get the HWE kernel and headers in a jammy vm:

- linux-headers-virtual-hwe-22.04
- linux-image-virtual-hwe-22.04
