Public bug reported:

[Impact]
the priority of OBSOLETE_BY should higher than "force". #89 
https://github.com/dell/dkms/issues/89

[Test case]
1. install the dkms package which already patched (also can be found from my 
test ppa[1])
2. install a DKMS which has OBSOLETE_BY and FORCE
e.g.ath10k of my testing ppa : [2]
 - the target dkms defined OBSOLETE_BY and FORCE
 - user install dkms on a system which installed kernel version less than 
OBSOLETE_BY and another kernel higher than OBSOLETE_BY
 - the dkms can be installed well.

[Regression potential]
medium as it touched the version sanity. This change land a change from 
upstream.
