Commit message

dkms: disable build against kernel >= 5.4

Description of the change

Since we have rolling kernel releases via -hwe flavor in LTS, the necessity of maintaining a working iwlwifi dkms package is becoming more and more irrelavent over time. backport-iwlwifi-dkms has been marked obsoleted for kernel v5.4 and newer, so we're going to take a step further to disable the build completely here.
