Public bug reported:

Using Focal:

```
$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS
Release:        20.04
```

I updated the system this morning, from aptitude log:

```

```

Following this update, a VirtualBox machine which had worked fine
stopped working.

This is exactly what others reported too:

https://askubuntu.com/questions/1520766/virtualbox-on-22-04-lts-has-something-changed-between-kernel-5-15-0-113-generi

I have removed VirtualBox from Ubuntu and installed it from Oracle as
suggested e.g. in https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?t=111918

Before removal, this is what I had:

virtualbox-qt:amd64 6.1.50-dfsg-1~ubuntu1.20.04.1
virtualbox:amd64 6.1.50-dfsg-1~ubuntu1.20.04.1
