cascardo asked me to sponsor his upload to xenial-proposed. I've compare the build logs between the 4.0ubuntu1 version currently in xenial to the build logs from his 4.5ubuntu1~16.04.1 change. The build logs are clean with no surprises. I also compared the binary packages and was able to confirm his assertion that the perf bash completion file is not distributed.
Outside of the added linux-update-symlinks and linux-check-removal commands which motivate this upload, there's only one other notable code change:
* Add image_stem() and read_kernelimg_conf() functions to Perl module
Those two new functions are only used by the new linux-update-symlinks command.
I think this is safe to SRU to Xenial and, therefore, have sponsored the upload.
