But /etc/lsb-release is a static file, which isn't going to be different
depending on which hardware enablement stack you're running. So I'm
afraid I don't see any practical way to fix this.
I also don't think 'lsb_release' is the expected interface to tell you
the answer to this question fwiw.

Title:
lsb_release -d should show a hint if it uses HWE or not
Status in base-files package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
The output of "lsb_release -d" does not show clearly if it really uses
the HWE.
Now it's shown
-----------------
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS
-----------------
and nobody knows if it uses really the XX.04.2 stack.
I suggest to change the output to something like this:
-----------------
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS (HWE)
-----------------
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS (GA)
-----------------
In the first case the system uses kernel 4.8 and its corrisponding Xserver.
In the second case the system uses kernel 4.4 and Xserver 1.18.
