** Description changed:

+ SRU Justification
+ 
+ [Impact]
  Having a common file for dkms-versions between main kernels and derivatives 
causes a lot of conflicts during rebase.
  Solution is to have a dkms-versions per kernels, under 
debian.<derivative>/dkms-version.
  
  While at it, instead of running ./update-dkms-version script, cranky
  update-dkms-versions was introduced.
+ 
+ [Fix]
+ This is needed only in the main kernels.
+ 1. remove update-dkms-version script
+ 2. rename debian/dkms-version with debian.master/dkms-versions
+ 3. Replace debian/dkms-versions references in debian scripts and rules with 
$(DEBIAN)/dkms-versions
+ 
+ Note for derivatives: These changes will be inherited from the parent during 
cranky rebase.
+ The only change to the cranky process is: instead of using 
./update-dkms-versions
+ script, cranky-update-dkms-versions should be used
+ 
+ [Test]
+ Build test on cbd. No issue found.
+ 
+ [Regression pottential]
+ Owners have tried this last cycle in derivatives and no issues were found.
+ We may see build failures due to wrong dkms versions, but it will be fixed 
along the way.

** Summary changed:

- Replace debian/dkms-versions with debian.<derivative>/dkms-versions
+ Cranky update-dkms-versions rollout

  SRU Justification

  [Impact]
  Having a common file for dkms-versions between main kernels and derivatives 
causes a lot of conflicts during rebase.
  Solution is to have a dkms-versions per kernels, under 
debian.<derivative>/dkms-version.

  While at it, instead of running ./update-dkms-version script, cranky
  update-dkms-versions was introduced.

  [Fix]
  This is needed only in the main kernels.
  1. remove update-dkms-version script
  2. rename debian/dkms-version with debian.master/dkms-versions
  3. Replace debian/dkms-versions references in debian scripts and rules with 
$(DEBIAN)/dkms-versions

  Note for derivatives: These changes will be inherited from the parent during 
cranky rebase.
  The only change to the cranky process is: instead of using 
./update-dkms-versions
  script, cranky-update-dkms-versions should be used

  [Test]
  Build test on cbd. No issue found.

  [Regression pottential]
  Owners have tried this last cycle in derivatives and no issues were found.
  We may see build failures due to wrong dkms versions, but it will be fixed 
along the way.
