  Description     : OpenVPN data channel offload (ovpn)

This DKMS module will provide a backport of the OpenVPN 2.7+ data channel
offloading module that has been merged in Linux mainline 6.14+. I intend
to upload this to experimental and later to Forky as soon as it opens
up for development, together with OpenVPN 2.7 releases.

The main use would be to backport both to Trixie and Bookworm to get them
proper in-the-field test coverage.

This package is basically the successor of openvpn-dco-dkms, the old
out-of-tree DCO module only supported with OpenVPN 2.6. They can both
be coinstalled, OpenVPN will use the correct module.

I expect to be able to drop both for the Forky release.

I no longer plan to do this. The upstream build system of this backports
module is sufficiently weird to make a lot of work, and there is already
a backports kernel for Trixie that carries the module.
