Bug Description
Yesterday unattended-upgrades required a reboot for kernel updates as expected. But today unattended-upgrades required a reboot even though there were no updates.

On this machine (16.04 server) unattended-upgrades is configured to reboot automatically.
This also happened on another 16.04 server with default unattended-upgrades configuration. It displayed the *******System restart required******* message. The same on a 14.04 server and a 14.04 desktop.
Expected behaviour: Not to do an unnecessary reboot.
Let me know what other information I can provide.
