Title:
  autoinstall fails despite BUILD_EXCLUSIVE

Status in dkms package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Kernel upgrades fail if DKMS packages are currently installed that
  include BUILD_EXCLUSIVE directives which skip the DKMS build. In this
  case, the dkms tool incorrectly returns a non-zero exit status.

  $ sudo /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms 6.2.0-20-generic
   * dkms: running auto installation service for kernel 6.2.0-20-generic        
                                                                 Deprecated 
feature: REMAKE_INITRD

  Error! The 
/var/lib/dkms/oem-ethernet-r8169-aspm-support-bionic/4/6.2.0-20-generic/x86_64/dkms.conf
 for module oem-ethernet-r8169-aspm-support-bionic includes a BUILD_EXCLUSIVE 
directive which does not match this kernel/arch/config.
  This indicates that it should not be built.
  Error! One or more modules failed to install during autoinstall.
  Refer to previous errors for more information.     [fail]

  [Test Plan]

  Install such a DKMS (like [1]), and run:
  $ sudo /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms $(uname -r)

  This command should return with exit status '0'.

  ethernet-r8169-aspm-support-bionic-dkms/

  [Where problems could occur]

  This fix changes how DKMS status/results are handled during
  autoinstall. So problems would only show up if DKMS modules are
  installed and are being processed (for example during a kernel upgrade
  or installation). Or if the dkms tool is invoked manually.

  [Other info]

  The bug was introduced in upstream dkms version 3.0.9 and fixed in
  3.0.11.
