** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
  Building this module against the new linux-hwe-5.8 returns the following
  error:
  
  /var/lib/dkms/lime-forensics/1.9-1/build/tcp.c: In function ‘setup_tcp’:
  /var/lib/dkms/lime-forensics/1.9-1/build/tcp.c:82:9: error: implicit 
declaration of function ‘kernel_setsockopt’; did you mean ‘kernel_getsockname’? 
[-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
-    82 |     r = kernel_setsockopt(control, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, (char 
*)&opt, sizeof (opt));
-       |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-       |         kernel_getsockname
+    82 |     r = kernel_setsockopt(control, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, (char 
*)&opt, sizeof (opt));
+       |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+       |         kernel_getsockname
+ 
+ [Test case]
+ 
+ $ sudo apt install lime-forensics-dkms
+ 
+ Build error(s) is(are) reported in make.log.
+ 
+ [Fix]
+ 
+ Fix by importing a patch from the same dkms module in groovy to use
+ sock_set_reuseaddr() with kernel 5.8 (and keep using kernel_setsockopt()
+ with kernels < 5.8).
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ 
+ The source code for the 5.4 kernel remains the same, so there is no
+ regression potential. The new changes are all conditionals and they are
+ all applied to the 5.8 kernel.
