[Bug 2025566] [NEW] upgrade flip-flops between adding kernels and removing them

[Dubery]

Public bug reported:

Starting 2nd July 2023, the recommended upgrades alternately added
(unnecessary) kernels (e.g. oracle, lowlatency) and the next upgrade
appeared immediately and removed the extra kernels and so on.

I have NVIDIA graphics and the above changes left me with a low
resolution unknown screen.  I have changed to the nouveau driver and
that fix has made the screen usable.
