Not exactly. I'm stumbled upon this bug while upgrading an old system in production. I did not dare reboot the system without fixing initramfs creation. This bug report actually gave me a hint that dkms could help, so I've added the work-around I've found to this bug report. I hope this will save some time to the next ops that will have to upgrade a Debian 7 production system in vmware. All the best
