Sorry this has taken so long - I've been swamped IRL :-(

I think there's a problem here in (the archive|the kernel packaging),
as far as I can see. Look at

  https://packages.debian.org/source/unstable/linux-signed-amd64

and you'll see that right now the linux-signed-amd64 (6.12.3+1) source
package claims to build modules for all of the following kernel
ABIs. Picking crypto-dm-modules-* as an example:

 * crypto-modules-6.10.9-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.10.9-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.10.11-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.10.11-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.10.12-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.10.12-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.2-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.2-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.4-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.4-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.5-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.5-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.6-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.6-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.7-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.7-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.9-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.9-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.10-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.11.10-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.12.3-amd64-di
 * crypto-modules-6.12.3-amd64-di

debian-cd just pulls in all the modules in a release, expecting that
to be a sensible set. WTH is happening here?

 English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don't just borrow words; on
 occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them
 unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary."  -- James D. Nicoll
