Using the apt available DKMS does not work

But mounting the 6.1.16 virtual disc with Virtualbox runnable installer
works (VBox_GAs_6.1.16)

After doing :

sudo ./VBox_GAs_6.1.16.run

and rebooting

The display now works again in full screen properly.

Working config is :

- VirtualBox-6.1.16-140961-Win
- Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-6.1.16
- Installed Guest Additions for 6.1.16
- kernel Linux asgard 5.8.0-34-generic #37~20.04.2-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 17 
14:53:00 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
