Package: dkms
Version: 2.6.1-1
Severity: important

While analyzing a piuparts stretch->buster upgrade failure I came across
this problem:

* I'm testing xtables-addons-dkms
* both linux-headers-4.9.0-8-amd64 (stretch) and
       linux-headers-4.18.0-2-amd64 (buster) are installed after the
  upgrade
* xtables-addons-dkms 3.2-1 (buster) only supports 4.15+
=> building for the stretch kernel fails and therefore configuring the
package fails
(can be easily reproduced in a buster or sid chroot with linux-headers
from stretch installed)

I didn't see any option for dkms.conf that would allow not to build the
module. MAKE_MATCH looked most promising, but there is no option for
being a no-op.
