What is the rpm version of the kernel after this patch?

The kernel is not actually 5.7, it is a later one. 5.8-rc0 seems
appropriate, though obviously does not match the in-kernel version and
has the problems you mention. However, naming the kernel "5.7" seems
misleading.

Could we perhaps append something to the kernel version to indicate
it's not a 5.7 kernel anymore? Even something like "5.7.0-5.8.0.rc0"
would work, IMHO. Just be sure that this is understood as a newer
version than 5.7.0 by rpm.

Thanks,

 Jiri
