linux-headers-5.15.0-1027-gke is removed from jammy last night

[Tai-Lin Chu]

Thanks for your answer.
We install specific versions because we try to compile kernel drivers.
In 20.04, we saw older kernel versions were kept, but in 22.04
(jammy), these older kernel versions could go missing. I wonder what
might be a good workaround.

Best,
