 The fix will be in the next upload. 
=========================================================================
dkms_common.postinst: handle dkms build error gracefully by skipping build for the non matching kernels.

Closes: #588585
Thanks: Jan-Marek Glogowski

dkms.conf allows to set a BUILD_EXCLUSIVE_KERNEL / BUILD_EXCLUSIVE_ARCH
parameter to specify a regular expression which defines the subset of
kernels / architectures which DKMS is allowed to build the module for. If
the kernel being built for does not match against this regular
expressions, the dkms build will error out with exit code 9.

This patch changes dkms_common.postinst to handle this dkms build
error gracefully by skipping build for the non matching kernels.
=========================================================================
