Public bug reported:
The VMWare kernel modules required to use VMWare Workstation(the specific
version is 16.2.5 build-20904516) used to work in past by 3rd party script
automatically compiling modules with DKMS. Since some time it's broken due to
the DKMS triggered scripts looking for files:
`/lib/modules/5.17.0-1029-oem/build/include/stddef.h`
`/lib/modules/5.17.0-1029-oem/build/include/stdarg.h`
while the files are present in
`/lib/modules/5.17.0-1029-oem/build/include/linux/`
directory
The workaround is to create two symlinks:
`sudo ln -s linux/stddef.h`
`sudo ln -s linux/stdarg.h`
`
but this causes manual action required after each kernel breaking the DKMS
system.
