This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
xenial' to 'verification-done-xenial'. If the problem still exists,
change the tag 'verification-needed-xenial' to 'verification-failed-
xenial'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

  Hi all,

  The binfmt_elf change in
  
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/eab09532d40090698b05a07c1c87f39fdbc5fab5
  broke Address Sanitizer. It was included in the Xenial (and Trusty-
  LTS-Xenial) kernel in this change. This broke us.

  
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/c715b72c1ba406f133217b509044c38d8e714a37
  reverts this change in order to unbreak Address Sanitizer. Any chance
  it can land soon? (Is there already a bug for this?)
