** Description changed:

- This is a spin-off of bug 1729568. With Kernel 4.13 (from linux-generic-
- hwe-16.04-edge), the host system freezes completely when starting a VM
- using VirtualBox. A black boot window pops up right before the freeze.
+ [Impact] 
+ * New kernel broke completely old and current vbox in xenial/artful, + security issues (meltdown,spectre)
+ * VM not able to start, 3d not working
+ [Test Case]
+ * Install 16.04 or 17.10 in a VM, Update or install the hwe stack, reboot, panic
+ 
+ [Regression Potential] 
+ * This is the second round of minor updates, since cherry-picking is impossible, and less tested by upstream/debian/me.
+ No regressions when we moved 5.0.18 to 5.0.40
+ 
+ The jump 5.0.40 -> 5.1.32 is bigger, but since 5.0.x is EOL upstream,
+ and with a lot of security issues, we should try to get the move in
+ Xenial, to make vbox continue working.
+ 
+ 5.2 can't build there, because of a lot of qtbase issues, so sticking
+ with 5.1 is the only viable solution we found over the last 4 months
+
