Yes, everyone that uses Stream 8 will be in the same boat as ELRepo do 
not support Stream. They provide their kmod packages to work with RHEL 
and the released RJEL kernels only. Stream tracks the NEXT point release 
of RHEL so it's already got what will become the 8.6 kernel that doesn't 
exist for RHEL 8 yet.

If you want to use ELRepo kmods then you need to use a RHEL rebuild like 
Rocky/Alma/OEL or RHEL itself. Stream is unsupported.
