Description
Last working Kernel was 5.3.8
as always DKMS fails
where can someone actually see where the last supported kernel is instead of installing a heap of kernels to find the last working one ?
not even any mention in change logs ...

at first I thought I broke it when reinstalling 6.0.14 because it spat out more errors .. attached install log
but after reboot it seems to be working fine with kernel 5.3.11-050311-generic

you where building a GA version of VBOX against a 5.4-rc7 kernel according to your log file:
Building the main VirtualBox module. Error building the module: make V=1 CONFIG_MODULE_SIG= -C /lib/modules/5.4.0-rc7+/build M=/tmp/vbox.0 SRCROOT=/tmp/vbox.0 -j8 modules make[1]: warning: -jN forced in submake: disabling jobserver mode.
That only works for the current develeopment branch, aka. trunk. see:
#18945: Linux 5.4: no more arbitrary executable pages and more changes https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/19052
If in doubt, please ask in the forums or the email aliases for help rather then filing bugs.
