Given the recent accelerated upgrade to 4.13 in 16.04 HWE wouldn't a simple option be to also upgrade virtualbox in 16.04 to 5.1 to get around this issue? Before this was something that probably only affected a few people on HWE-edge but now with Spectre/Meltdown people will be hitting this much more often.
