kmod-kvdo-8.2.5.14-163.el9_6 installs but fails to load module on kernel versions 5.14.0-570.23.1 and earlier

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

The kmod-kvdo-8.2.5.14-163.el9_6 package supports kernel-5.14.0-570.24.1.el9_6 and newer. The kmod-kvdo-8.2.5.14-163.el9_6 package will install on kernels it does not support. The installation will succeed, but the kvdo module will fail to load, for example:

[root@localhost ~]# modprobe kvdo
modprobe: FATAL: Module kvdo not found in directory /lib/modules/5.14.0-362.24.1.el9_3.x86_64
