Followup-For: Bug #1057447
Control: found -1 6.30.223.271-24~exp1
Control: tag -1 + patch

This issue is caused by
a) version parsing that expects three numeric components (6.6.1-foo) and
   fails if there are only two (6.7-rc1)
b) broken version comparison logic
which turn on APICHOICE=FORCE_WEXT on kernels without
CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT

Attached patch fixes that.

Verified to be able to build a module for 6.7-cloud-amd64.
