I have attached an (untested) patch to fix this issue hoping that that
will prod it along a bit. The patch is against the sources of
`linux_3.13.0-67.110` as downloaded by an `apt-get source
linux=3.13.0-67.110` on 14.04.3.

Cheers,
Seb

Title:
  linux-image-extra-*-generic postrm script runs install actions

Status in linux-lts-trusty package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,

  The postrm maintainer script in the binary packages linux-image-
  extra-*-generic runs the scripts in /etc/kernel/postinst.d instead of
  those in /etc/kernel/postrm.d.

  This can have all sorts of undesirable consequences depending on what
  other packages add to those directories, but I noticed it because it
  caused /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal to make the wrong
  decisions leaving my servers with only one installed kernel left.

  Cheers,
  Seb
