When this happens, a kernel re-install works.
For example:

## SSH command: sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade
+ ssh ubuntu at Armada1 -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o CheckHostIP=no -i /var/lib/ubuntu-iso-testing/kernel-sru/ssh-keys/qa-ubuntu 'sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade'
Warning: Permanently added 'armada1' (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts.
