What is your kernel configuration, and I hope you make config choices
compatible with your target host OS.

For latest kernel and latest kernel features support in kmod, latest
kmod is required. I.e. patched with
https://github.com/kmod-project/kmod/commit/510c8b7f7455c6613dd1706e5e41ec7b09cf6703

Or ensure that you use a compatible kernel configuration by for
example using SHA256 for kernel module signing.

SHA3 is added as a future alternative to the currently recommended
SHA2 based hashes, as it seems not great to only have a single family
of hashes supported out of the box that are still deemed to be secure.
