Public bug reported:

[Impact]

The current version of dkms-autopkgtest in 20.04 and later only selects
binary packages with names ending with "-dkms" for its automatic DKMS
test. With that packages suchs bcml-kernel-source and nvidia drivers are
not being tested automatically by autopkgtest.

[Test Case]

Run autopkgtest in Focal for bcmwl-kernel-source (6.30.223.271+bdcom-
0ubuntu5) and the 5.8 kernel and even with this version of the driver
failing to build with the 5.8 kernel, the test succeeds. The expected
behavior, is that that dkms-autopkgtest should fail in this case.

[Where problems could occur]

The main issue that we can have here is selecting additional packages
for the DKMS test that are not DKMS packages.
