Public bug reported:

I recently upgraded to the hwe-16.04 kernel and X server.

I am unable to boot the 4.10 series hwe kernels.  At the plymouth splash
screen I just see the message, "cryptsetup: lvm is not available" over
and over again, and I am never asked for my FDE password to unlock the
luks-encrypted root partition.  I've observed this in both 4.10.0-33 and
4.10.0-35 kernels.

This never happened with the 4.4 series kernels.  In fact, I can still
choose a 4.4 series kernel in the grub menu, boot that, and it works
fine -- no error message, asks me for my password, mounts root, and off
we go.

The error "lvm is not available" is particularly strange in that it
shouldn't be needed -- this system has no lvm containers.  I only use
device-mapper.
