OpenZFS and Linux Kernel versions compatibility question

Each new release of openZFS has a range of supported linux kernel versions (for example openZFS v2.1.9 supports kernels versions between 3.10 and 6.1) But when I run zfs version I get: root@pve:~# zfs version zfs-2.1.9-pve1 zfs-kmod-2.1.6-pve1 PVE it's because I'm running proxmox virtual environment distribution, but at the end of the day it's debian (11) with some virtualization glitter on top. So my question is, what linux kernel versions can I install? Because zfs version returns two different versions that have different linux support. For example, zfs 2.1.6 only supports up to linux 5.19. So, what's the important version, zfs or zfs-kmod? EDIT: Also, should those two versions, zfs and zfs-kmod, be the same?
