Title:
  request to pull in an upstream bug fix for systemd

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  There's a bug in systemd's virtualization detection algorithm that
  prevents the XenServer Tools from working: systemd-virt-detect reports
  "vm-other" instead of Xen on AMD hosts, and if it doesn't report
  "xen", then xe-daemon will refuse to start. Thus, installing Ubuntu as
  a guest on XenServer on an AMD host will be less than ideal.

  This has been patched upstream:
  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/530c1c3028c484c503725bbac769b9051af83da7

  If this fix could be pulled into Xenial / Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, it would
  be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
