Request to support kernel version 5.4.15.x

Our OEM parnter Inspur Electronic Information were resold many ECE cluster to their customers. One of key issue is limited kernel supported in Storage Scale. Their customer need flexible support policy to kernel version. Their customer need to use  kernel version 5.4.15.x but  we only support kernel version 5.14 on RHEL 9.x and 4.18 on RHEL 8.x so native client can't supported with kernel version 5.4.15. IEI hope to support 5.4.15 in coming Storage Scale version.
