[oe] [meta-oe][PATCH] vboxguestdrivers: update to version 6.0.14 and unblacklist

[Gianfranco Costamagna]

Hello,

Unfortunately that commit has been removed in
0e3f1ad80fc8cb0c517fd9a9afb22752b741fa76

git tag --contains df4028658f9dd7f82fd190e9db5bd82c05f94625
v5.4
v5.4-rc7
v5.4-rc8
v5.4.1
v5.4.2
v5.5-rc1

git tag --contains 0e3f1ad80fc8cb0c517fd9a9afb22752b741fa76
v5.4
v5.4-rc8
v5.4.1
v5.4.2
v5.5-rc1

so, unless you use v5.4-rc7 or patches, you can't use the vanilla version.

In any case, this commit should be fixing also kernels before 5.5 (that
will hopefully be the first release with that support fixed),
and it shouldn't hurt that much.

please note that I just tried to update the recipe, I'm not a direct user
of this recipe myself, so I don't care if you want to just drop the recipe
(I'm testing it right now)

G.
