== Trusty SRU Justification ==

This patch is still under discussion upstream:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/10/2/550

However, this bug is a regression and preventing 32 bit guests
from booting on Hyper-V, so it probably worth discussing possible inclusion in
the Ubuntu kernel before it lands in mainline.

This patch has already been applied to Vivid and Wily via a SRU request.  
Trusty also exhibits this bug, but requires commit 7e5ec368 as a prereq.

== Fix ==
