> Upstream openafs 1.8.14 includes fixes that enable the openafs kernel
module to build against Linux kernel versions 6.14-6.17, so backport
1.8.14-1ubuntu1 from Resolute to Questing and Noble as versions
1.8.14-1ubuntu1~25.10.1 and 1.8.14-1ubuntu1~24.04.1, respectively.

Upstream 1.8.14 has many more changes[1], unrelated to this bug. This
amount of unrelated changes does not qualify for an SRU as this was
proposed.

Specifically, the proposed test plan doesn't even propose mounting an
AFS volume: it just tests that the module builds and loads. Were the
proposed changes aligned with just fixing the build due to kernel
changes, that might have been ok, but the proposal here includes many
other changes.

Please refer to [2][3] for the general requirements for an SRU, and
specifically [4] if you want to consider claiming the Micro Release
Exception (MRE)
