I've installed this kernel, but haven't rebooted into it. I noticed
while installing it, I got a zillion messages:

  depmod: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:515 lookup_builtin_file() could not open builtin file '/lib/modules/5.4.0-17-generic/modules.builtin.bin'

Both linux-modules-5.4.0-17-generic and
linux-modules-extra-5.4.0-17-generic were installed, so I'm not sure
what's gone wrong here.
