Bug Description
There is a new Zesty regression on armhf, related to the autopkgtest for ubuntu-image. Here's a log of a recent run:
Scroll to the bottom and you see this:
Incompatible libdevmapper 1.02.136 (2016-11-05) and kernel driver (unknown version).
device mapper prerequisites not met
/dev/mapper/
Failure to communicate with kernel device-mapper driver.
Check that device-mapper is available in the kernel.

Don't be misled by the gadget.yamls which name different architectures. ubuntu-image should be able to build a disk image for any architecture on any architecture.
What this test does is build the image, then run kpartx to map the partitions in the image, and then mount the partitions. It doesn't do anything other than ensure that the partitions can be mounted, and this is where it's failing.
This test succeeds on amd64, i386, and ppc64el. It's never passed on s390x so that's not a regression. It *used* to pass on armhf even on Zesty, but the recent upload of 0.13+17.10ubuntu2 displays the regression.
I will bugtask this to libdevmapper and kpartx since it's possibly a bug in one of those packages (though I still suspect the kernel).
