** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+ This change is required for MAAS hardware enablement - for MAAS to be
+ able to deploy 12.04 systems on ARM.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ On 12.04:
+ 
+ 1. apt-get install maas
+ 2. Run "sudo maas-import-isos" as advised
+ 3. Run "sudo maas createsuperuser" and create a superuser username and password with ubuntu/ubuntu.
+ 4. PXE boot a system and point it to MAAS using DHCP next-server with filename set to "pxelinux.0".
+ 5. Go to http://<maas server>/MAAS, log in as ubuntu/ubuntu, and verify that one node has appeared in the MAAS.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ MAAS enlistment is the only thing at risk here. After this SRU, maas-enlist will enlist with an additional "subarchitecture" field with no change to anything else. I have checked that MAAS on 12.04 ignores this field. But if there is a problem, it'll be with MAAS enlistment.
+ 
+ Original bug description:
+ 
  For ARM support, maas-enlist needs to post the subarch, as returned in
  the second half of `archdetect` output. For example, in
  "armhf/highbank", it needs to post the "highbank" part to MAAS as well.
  
  This will require an SRU to Precise in order for MAAS to be able to
  deploy Precise on ARM.
