http://people.canonical.com/~kernel/status/adt-matrix/xenial-linux-meta-aws.html

Adt tests not showing any regression, overriding automated-testing status to 'Fix Released'.

4.4.0-1049.58 - aws
Regression test CMPL.

Issue to note in x86_64 (aws):
  libhugetlbfs - 1 failed (brk_near_huge), Killed by signal 1, bad config 3
  ubuntu_kvm_unit_tests - test disabled
  ubuntu_ltp - test disabled
  ubuntu_lxc - lxc-test-ubunut failed (Failed to start networking in ubuntu-cloud container)

This bug was fixed in the package linux-aws - 4.4.0-1049.58
