On 20.04, I have vmlinuz-5.4.0-60-generic and vmlinuz-5.4.0-62-generic, so you are a ways out of patching. My 20.04 system doesn't have problems with any NFS mounts from either 16.04 or 18.04 NFS...
kernels have a package name. Any file tied to the kernel should lead you back to the package name.
For example:

Well, that's great if you put the drive into a different system. Won't work if both drives are connected to a single system or more correctly, won't work with consistent results.
Cloned disks cannot be connected at the same time after the cloning ends. All the unique UUIDs are cloned too, so they are not unique any more. That's not good.
