Yakkety is EOL in a week, so there's closing the Yakkety tasks given
that no one has uploaded a package yet (which would likely take a week
or more to get through the verification pipe).

Bug description:
[Impact]
This bug is found on Ubuntu 16.04 with fwupdate 0.5-2ubuntu4, but not found
on Ubuntu 17.04 with fwupdate 9-1.
The newer version of capsule flashing tools in Ubuntu 17.04 supports
the reset type from some querycapsuleinfo call：
https://github.com/rhinstaller/fwupdate/commit/f1cc489783d2054e90fa6bebc3732e7ea8bb3722
[Test Case]
== fwupdate ==
On a system with a capsule update available, perform capsule update using
fwupdate. Verify the system works properly after the update.
== efivar ==
We avoided the upgrade of efivar so we don't need to validate its
reverse-dependencies.
[Regression Potential]
Any vendors that relied upon the previous functionality (hardcoded to warm
reset rather than querying for reset types) may have problems. This is
actually a BIOS
problem in those situations.
It's unlikely that this should happen though because querying for
reset types more closely aligns to the implementations that other OSes
use when applying capsule updates.
