Hardware Certification have completed testing this -proposed kernel. No regressions were observed, results are available here: http://people.canonical.com/~hwcert/sru-testing/xenial/4.4.0-135.161/xenial-proposed-published.html

There is one non-verified bug left for xenial/linux, but given that they are not critical I'm marking verification-testing as 'Fix Released'.

No USN Needed
