[Taihsiang Ho (tai271828)]

Certification Test has performed the tests as http://people.canonical.com/~hwcert/sru-testing/current/xenial-4.10-proposed.html

The tests are still in progress ,and the current process has covered some critical platforms and test jobs. It looks good so far. If the kernel wants to be pushed to update ASAP, please move forward and invalidate Cert Test.
