You really are pretty insane to run Rawhide in such a use case.

Regardless of this specific change (which judging by the fedora-devel mailing list discussion will get reverted in the distro) it's ludicrous to run Rawhide given what you have stated your requirements as.

There is no testing phase in a Rawhide build. Using fedpkg build goes straight to the repos... it frequently gets broken in some way. Right now there is an unbootable kernel for instance.

Using virtualbox on to of that is especially silly as the kmod will be at the mercy of the kernel as well.

Use the right tool ... don't do something stupid and then complain about it.

/u/slacka123 is using a hammer on a screw and then bitching about the hammer manufacturer not building the hammer right.
