I have a build now working for xenial now (local sbuild).
Unless we will get a confirmation for extra tests by vmware or someone else able to cover the current supported esxi we will (as discussed) "only" target backports but not an SRU (this can change if one confirms he is willing and able to do the verifications).

I have a ppa [1] that is open to be tested already and will kick off the processing to make this a xenial-backport upload now (I never done such a backport so I hope I get the process right from [2]).

@Evade - if you could try out the build from that ppa that would be great
