[Impact]

* Microsoft has requested the involflt DKMS module to be included in Azure and Generic kernels

[Fix]

* For Azure kernels, module will initially be included during kernel build via the dkms-version hooks to provide DKMS modules signed into a kernel build
* For Generic kernels (and Azure once complete), the DKMS modules will ultimately be included via a linux-main-modules package, similar to linux-restricted-modules

[Test Plan]

* Compile and install involflt module
* Microsoft tested

[Where problems could occur]

* Low regression risk, module separate from kernel package and requires separate install

[Other info]

* SF #00366523
