I would bet that you are missing the kernel header for the 4.4.0-98-generic
kernel.

	sudo apt-get install linux-headers-4.4.0-98-generic

I'm not sure if dkms triggers on header install but if I were you I would simply
force a reinstall of the lttng-modules-dkms package and make sure that the
modules are installed for both the 98 and 139 kernel.

Cheers
