[Impact]
Despite the fix in LP: #2043195 openafs-modules-dkms still fails to build with the new jammy/linux-hwe-6.5 kernel:

[Test case]
Install the latest 6.5 kernel, then:
$ sudo apt install openafs-modules-dkms
[Fix]
Backport the fix from mantic to properly support the new linux 6.5 kernel ABI.
[Regression potential]
We may experience regressions in systems that are using openafs, the change to build the module is minimal, so we shouldn't expect data corruption or similar, worst case the module could still fail to build with newer kernels.
