DKMS support
------------
Change `#MODULE_VERSION#` to the current version of bbswitch. Copy the
Makefile, C source and dkms.conf file to `/usr/src/bbswitch-VERSION/` (replace
VERSION with the current version of bbswitch which has been inserted for
`#MODULE_VERSION#`.
If you have DKMS installed, you can install bbswitch in such a way that it
survives kernel upgrades. It is recommended to remove older versions of bbswitch
by running `dkms remove bbswitch/OLDVERSION --all` as root. To install the new
version, simply run:
# make -f Makefile.dkms
To uninstall it, run:
# make -f Makefile.dkms uninstall
