New issue by antonio-malcolm on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/14813

Description:
### System

* xuname:  
  Void 5.2.17_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel notuptodate rrFF

* package:  
  exfat-dkms 1.2.8 revision 5

### Expected behavior
Successful build of the exfat kernel module

### Actual behavior
Kernel module build fails, and leaves behind files:

make log:

Comment:
I don't expect this to be fixed and don't have any interest in the exfat drivers myself. I just want to leave this here for people running into the issue:

It currently looks like linux 5.4 will provide an official exfat driver although in the staging directory for now. This could potentially be enabled in our builds. There is a fuse module available from https://github.com/relan/exfat which is packaged as `fuse-exfat` and could serve as an alternative. A more recent version derived from the Samsung code is available at https://github.com/arter97/exfat-linux. This one could potentially be packaged to provide a working kernel module for the 5.2 and 5.3 kernels which are currently left without one. Someone would have to do the packaging though.

Comment:
Closing because our modern kernels ship with built-in ExFAT support.

Subsequently, `xbps-remove -Ryv` fails to remove files left behind, under `/var/lib/dkms`.

### Steps to reproduce the behavior
run `xbps-install -Suv exfat-utils`
then...
run `xbps-remove -Ryv exfat-utils`
