Bug Description

kernel 4.7 : Implement a quick format mode in dasdfmt. In this mode, only the first 2 tracks are formatted and filled with contents, resulting in reduced DASD volume initialization time in cases where a regular track format on the remaining tracks can be assumed. This mode is intended as preparation for a future DS8k feature that will allow customers to define a DASD volume with a pre-formatted track layout.

Incorrect package name used on launchpad by bugproxy. Should be "linux" rather than unrelated, unsupported, universe package "kernel-package" that contains mostly non-changing build scripts and utilities.
