** Description changed:

  [SRU Justification]
  
  [ Impact ]
  
  Failed to build against kernel v6.17-rc1.
  
  [ Test Plan ]
  
  0. Install oem-6.17 kernel from noble-proposed
  1. Install broadcom-sta-dkms from noble -proposed pocket
  2. The dkms should rebuild itself against the running kernel automatically; 
if not rebuild them manually with:
  
     $ sudo dkms install --force broadcom-sta/6.30.223.271 -k $(uname -r)
  
  3. Reboot to load the kernel module
  4. The wl module should be loaded automatically and wireless lan should be 
usable as before.
+ 5. There should not be any UBSAN warning in dmesg, e.g.:
+ [ 28.822952] UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in 
/var/lib/dkms/broadcom-wl/6.30.223.271/build/src/wl/sys/wl_linux.c:1938:4
  
- Additionally, execute the same test (step 0-4) against the 6.8 kernel in
+ Additionally, execute the same test (step 0-5) against the 6.8 kernel in
  Noble, to confirm it did not regress on the GA kernel.
  
  [ Where problems could occur ]
  
  This doesn't affect the rest part of the system, and it doesn't
  introduce functional changes.
  
  [ Other Info ]
  
  This affects series with kernels >= 6.17. Nominate Questing and Noble
  for fixing.
  
  Kernel 6.17 will not be introduced in Plucky
