We will need to update all kexts released in August due to 10.10 and below incompatibility introduced in MacKernelSDK change: https://github.com/acidanthera/MacKernelSDK/commit/04d55dcd666b96b8891ddd6ac60eccea353de051, fixed in https://github.com/acidanthera/MacKernelSDK/commit/a2ba595133100d5d3bba02c54819b46b792ed6aa.

This will need changelog entry updates as follows:

• Fixed loading on 10.10 and below

@Goldfish64, could you please confirm that all kexts listed here are affected? We may not need some on older operating systems.

I used the following changelog message in Lilu: - Fixed loading on macOS 10.10 and older due to a MacKernelSDK regression.

Suggest using it for all other kexts affected.

VoodooInput, FeatureUnlock, and CryptexFixup I believe are not affected as they target 10.11/10.14 and newer.

[vit9696]

Updated the issue. @Goldfish64, do you confirm these ones are ok?

[vit9696]

We are ready to make a release after merging the latest OC changes. @vandroiy2013, could you proceed as usual please?
