** Description changed:
+ SRU Justification:
+
+ [Impact]
+
+ backport-iwlwifi-dkms built module iwldvm and iwlmld not installed as we
+ don't need them before, but become necessary for core102 firmware
+ loading for Intel BE211/BE213 wireless modules on Intel Wildcat Lake
+ platform.
+
+ [Fix]
+
+ Sauced change in the dkms config.
+
+ [Test Plan]
+
+ Install the dkms, should trigger auto-install for current running
+ kernel. After kernel modules built, check if they, iwldvm.ko and
+ iwlmld.ko, are available in the `/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/updates/dkms`
+ folder.
+
+ [Where problems could occur]
+
+ backport-iwlwifi is not recommended whenever the in-tree module is
+ available and supports the equipped hardware. It should only be used on
+ systems that couldn't migrate to newer kernel versions.
+
+ [Other Info]
+
+ While this affects core89 release or revision 12217 and on, nominate
+ fixes for Questing and Resolute.

Basically the in-tree iwlmld module is loaded because that's not
installed along with other kernel modules in backport-iwlwifi-dkms.
iwlmld was introduced in commit a05e91d95449d3c7b71d73592902edd1a8f33487
("wifi: iwlwifi: mld: add the new operation mode"), core89 release, or
revision 12217, therefore affects Oracular and above.
Similar case happens on iwldvm module, which was introduced in commit
83063e236330631ec8b425ed1f19161001e25687 ("[NOUPSTREAM] prune: add DVM
to public"), core103, or revision 14346, therefore affects Resolute
only.
