      Description of problem:
      When trying to create a VDO lv, the following error pops up:
      lvcreate --type vdo --name test-vdo --size 5g --virtualsize 10g vdovg
      modprobe: FATAL: Module kvdo not found in directory /lib/modules/5.14.0-316.el9.x86_64
      /usr/sbin/modprobe failed: 1
      vdo: Required device-mapper target(s) not detected in your kernel.
      Run `lvcreate --help' for more information.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
      RHEL-9.3.0-20230524.0

      kmod-kvdo-8.2.1.6-86.el9.x86_64
      vdo-8.2.0.2-1.el9.x86_64
