Revision: 314910

upgpkg: virtualbox 5.2.8-2

Fix virtualbox-guest-dkms to work with different kernel versions:

  - for kernels earlier than Linux 4.16; it will build all 3 modules
  - for Linux 4.16; it will only build vboxsf (the mainline version)
  - for future kernels (4.17 and later); it will not build anything

Also patch VBoxService to fix automounting of shares on Linux 4.16.

The following error will be printed when VBoxService tries to mount
a shared directory and also when vboxsf.mount is used on Linux 4.16:

    vboxsf: Old binary mount data not supported, remove obsolete
    mount.vboxsf and/or update your VBoxService.

Despite the above error, the shared directories should be mounted (or,
in the case of vboxsf.mount, show a suggestion to use: mount -cit ...)
