Marco Ciampa, just to advise, when one uses an old 12.04 kernel in
14.04, one is not receiving the standard security, stability, or
enablement updates one would normally get using the updates your release
comes with.

Hence, your choices are request a backport to your present release (i.e.
this report is marked Fix Released), or you may upgrade to 15.04
(Invalid).
