[OpenAFS] Issues on latest CentOS 7 kernel 3.10.0-229.20.1.el7

[Glick, Bill]

We're running openafs-1.6.8-1 on several CentOS 7 systems.  We have configu=
red openafs to install and update from the OpenAFS 1.6.8 yum repo (http://w=
ww.openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.6.8/rhel7/x86_64/).  We install the following p=
ackages: openafs, dkms-openafs, openafs-client, openafs-krb5, openafs-docs.

After updating to the latest default CentOS 7 kernel (3.10.0-229.20.1.el7) =
early this morning, it looks like the dkms-openafs package is no longer reb=
uilding the openafs kernel module correctly.
Is anyone else seeing similar issues?

Also, is there a better openafs yum repository that we should use to get ne=
wer versions of dkms-openafs, etc?

I've included some log excerpts below to show what happened for us earlier =
this morning.
