Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * The users can not use netboot.iso to install Ubuntu on eMMC
  storage.

  [Test Case]

   * Download netboot.iso of trusty/utopic/vivid from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-proposed/main/installer-amd64/current/images/
   * Use netboot.iso to burn an installation CD/DVD or make an installation USB stick.
   * Use this installation media on a platform with eMMC storage to install Ubuntu system.

  [Regression Potential]

   * None

  [Other Info]

   * None

  Linux kernel in Ubuntu doesn't provide mmc-modules udeb like https://packages.debian.org/unstable/mmc-modules-4.2.0-1-amd64-di in Debian.
  So it makes us unable to install the Ubuntu system into eMMC storage via netboot, aka http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/wily/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/.
