1) Release
root@jammy-vm:~# lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu Jammy Jellyfish (development branch)
Release: 22.04
2) Package
root@jammy-vm:~# apt-cache policy linux-modules-5.15.0-1002-kvm
linux-modules-5.15.0-1002-kvm:
Installed: 5.15.0-1002.2
Candidate: 5.15.0-1002.2
Version table:
*** 5.15.0-1002.2 500
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
3) What I expect to happen
The following command should succeed.
lxd init --auto --storage-backend=lvm
4) What happened:
Lxd's default lvm storage backend fails on linux-kvm due to missing dm-
thin-pool.ko.
Output:

Run `lvcreate --help' for more information.
I haven't found any -kvm kernels yet that have this kmod, so I suspect a
backport of the fix will be required to supported releases.
