virtualbox driver not installed (dkms install vboxhost returned 10)

Kernel: 5.8.0-arch1-1

it started when i upgraded my system this morning with the `pacman -Syu` command, then installed the `intel-ucode` package and ran `grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg`.

i started virtualbox and found this error message:

i tried to reinstall `virtualbox-host-dkms` package and that was the output:

sudo pacman -S virtualbox-host-dkms

i checked https://pastebin.com/PxEzSRGf and found this error:

/var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/6.1.12_OSE/build/vboxdrv/linux/SUPDrv-linux.c:760:38: error: 'cpu_tlbstate' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'cpuhp_state'?

i tried downgrading the package but no luck.

this is from pacman log:

Unable to remove module vboxhost/6.1.12_OSE for kernel 5.8.0-arch1-1: Not found in dkms status output.

is this a common bug? i can't use virtualbox.

and yes i've checked:
