Public bug reported:

The norm is for the linux-image-<ABI>-<flavour> packages to decide which
component kernel bits they need, for split kernels this means -generic
has linux-image-<ABI>-generic and linux-image-<ABI>-generic.  For linux-
signed-<ABI>-<flavour> this is being handled out of the linux-signed
source package, which is both confusing and wrong in the sense it would
prevent us from having a linux-signed-virtual.

We should move the linux-image-extra dependency over to linux-meta.
