** Description changed:

+ SRU Justification
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ 
  Hello,
  
  It seems that although the Azure kernel distribution includes the
  `tcm_loop` module by default, the EKS-optimised image's default kernel
  doesn't, instead including the module in the `linux-kernel-
  extras-$(uname -r)` package.
  
  `tcm_loop` is an incredibly useful package for any storage fabric
  software packages - eg. Ceph, Rook or Ondat. It would be very helpful to
  have it embedded into the default kernel distribution in order to reduce
  friction on installing 'storage fabric' type topologies.
  
  The Ubuntu on EKS images are all listed in https://cloud-
  images.ubuntu.com/docs/aws/eks/ - I'd be happy to provide any
  information necessary to help shave off this extra bit of work required
  to setup such images.
+ 
+ [Fix]
+ 
+ Add tcm_loop.ko to the inclusion list
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ Check that linux-modules includes tcp_loop.ko
+ 
+ [Where things could go wrong]
+ 
+ Moving tcm_loop.ko from linux-modules-extra could impact proprietary
+ methods.
