Eoan and later d-i, new installer, curtin do not install /etc/kernel-img.conf.
Upgraded systems keep having it (ie. installed with bionic or xenial, and upgraded).

Can you please let me know if _removing_ /etc/kernel-img.conf breaks $ sudo make install, and if adding /etc/kernel-img.conf back fixes $ sudo make install?

Cause the expectation is that `/etc/kernel-img.conf` should not be there, yet everything should still work correctly.

I think somewhere something is reading "link_in_boot=yes" and was not updated with the new implicit default to always assume that on recent ubuntu.
