Bug 30491

ah, I fixed it in cauldron ~1.5 months ago,  but forgot to update mga8 to support the backport kernels.. :/

but I need to push another fix to support the 5.18 series kernels anyway, so I'll fix it up...

added support for 5.17 and 5.18 series kernels...

I do not have a device, so that's as far as I can go. Since it built, installed, and worked with the 5.15.43 kernel, and it built and installed with the 5.17.11 kernel, I'm giving this an OK.
