Public bug reported:

[ Impact ]
In order to use the same compiler as used for kinetic:linux (gcc-12) we have 
made some changes to explicitly compile jammy:linux-hwe-5.19 with the same 
compiler. These changes were mainly part of bug 1999750 and bug 1991664. 
However, such changes are breaking the build of a number of dkms packages.

[ Fix ]
The proposed temporary workaround is to revert commit "UBUNTU: [Packaging] use 
versioned gcc-12", which would make the kernel compile with the default GCC in 
Jammy (gcc-11), while a proper solution is being worked on.

[ Where problems could occur ]
gcc-12 is necessary to enable some of the new security-related kernel configs, 
so going back to gcc-11 will disable such features. However, this would not 
regress users when upgrading from the generic kernel to hwe-5.19 in Jammy.
