Title:
  free space check doesn't take into account kernel upgrades

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Test Case]
  If you don't have a separate /boot partition you can create a file which will be loopback mounted as boot and then test having a full /boot.
  1) Install xenial hwe backport kernel
  2) dd if=/dev/zero of=fake-boot bs=1024 count=204800
  3) mkfs -t ext3 fake-boot
  4) copy your real /boot somewhere
  5) sudo mount -t ext3 fake-boot /boot
  6) copy the files from your old /boot into the /boot
  7) fill /boot up some more e.g. fallocate -l 50M filler.txt
  8) upgrade from Trusty to Xenial (do-release-upgrader)

  With the version of the release-upgrader in the archive you'll receive
  an error regarding "gzip: stdout: No space left on device...
  mkinitramfs failure cpio 141 gzip 1".

  With the version of the release-upgrader from -proposed you'll receive
  an error notification that there is "Not enough free disk space" and
  the upgrade will not proceed.

  [Regression Potential]
  There is little chance of regression as we are just checking to see if linux-image or linux-image-debug packages are marked for upgrade.

  Could not install 'linux-image-4.4.0-45-generic'
