[Bug 1591010] Re: two s390x fixes for docker

[Michael Hudson-Doyle]

I have now verified that the Go packages in xenial-release build a
broken docker and the Go packages in xenial-proposed build a working
docker on s390x and ppc64el, so verification-done.

Title:
  two s390x fixes for docker

Status in golang-1.6 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in golang-1.6 source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  As explained in https://github.com/golang/go/issues/16021#issuecomment-225029684, the s390x port for Go contains two bugs that prevent docker from operating correctly.

  [Test Case]
  Build the docker, containerd and runc source packages from yakkety, install them "docker run s390x/ubuntu:16.04 echo hi" -- in the failing case this will hang on exit and containerd will be observed to use 100% cpu.
  Rebuild all packages that build-depend on golang in xenial.

  [Regression potential]
  Slight. I believe the Go point releases meet the guidelines described at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#New_upstream_microreleases.
