** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+ lttng-modules-dkms is reporting many build errors with linux-hwe-5.11,
+ because of many kernel ABI changes.
+ 
+ [Fix]
+ 
+ Backporting the individual patches to fix all the build errors would be
+ a lot of work and the risk to introduce regressions would be pretty
+ high, therefore it seems safer to update to the version that is also
+ used in impish, that works with 5.11 and it's backward compatible (so it
+ works also with 5.4).
+ 
+ [Test]
+ 
+ ubuntu_lttng_smoke_test from (git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/autotest-
+ client-tests)
+ 
+ [Where problems could occur]
+ 
+ This is a major version update, so it does not contain trivial changes
+ as backporting individual patches/fixes, so there's a risk to see
+ regressions with lttng (however potential regressions are *only* limited
+ to lttng).
+ 
+ However, this way is definitely safer than backporting all the
+ individual changes to fix the all the kernel ABI changes introduced in
+ 5.11.
+ 
+ [Original bug report]
+ 
  This is a scripted bug report about ADT failures while running lttng-
  modules tests for linux-hwe-5.11/5.11.0-20.21~20.04.1 on focal. Whether
  this is caused by the dep8 tests of the tested source or the kernel has
  yet to be determined.
