v4l2loopback-dkms 0.12.7-1 fails when trying to build for kernel versions >= 5.18. Upstream have a fix in their repo which could be cherrypicked until they push out a new release:

I have this same error as well. I have created a patch file that gets the fix listed above as a patch file and applies it. I can confirm it works and v4l2loopback-dkms builds with it.

```
==> dkms install --no-depmod v4l2loopback/0.12.7 -k 6.0.2-arch1-1
Error! The /var/lib/dkms/v4l2loopback/0.12.7/6.0.2-arch1-1/x86_64/dkms.conf for module v4l2loopback includes a BUILD_EXCLUSIVE directive which does not match this kernel/arch.
This indicates that it should not be built.
==> WARNING: `dkms install --no-depmod v4l2loopback/0.12.7 -k 6.0.2-arch1-1' exited 9

On kernel 6.0.2-arch1-1
