Comment 46 for bug 1906476

So to be clear this patch revert fixes the issue being caused new, but, if the issue already happened on your filesystem it will continue to occur because the exception is reporting corruption on disk. I don't currently have a good fix for this other than to move the affected files to a directory you don't use (but it's sometimes tricky to figure out which files are the cause).

For dkms status you could try check ls -la /proc/$(pidof dkms)/fd to see what file it opened, or strace it, to try figure out what file it's up to when it hangs. then move that file or directory out of the way and then replace them.
