I have the same problem since upgrade. This is one of the major
applications: please consider removing Won't fix and comment on possible
solutions and workarounds

If the kernel is upgraded and virtualbox stops working there are 2 possible 
choices:
1. patch the kernel
2. update virtualbox package version to latest available (6.1.16 according 
to: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads)

Most likely the second option is easier, especially since the patch
version is what changed.

As for the workarounds:
1. downgrade the kernel
2. switch to upstream packages from virtualbox project itself
