The missing patch itself doesn't resolve the kdump issues by itself, but
nevertheless it should be taken in.

Please merge this one and we'll follow-up in 1400319 with the kdump functionality not working as expected all the time.
Thank you!

  Hello,

  Related to ID #1583357 in regards to the LIS improvements rebase to the 4.6 kernel, we would also like to include the below patches.
  These are to fix the kdump feature when running on a Hyper-V VM, as the crash scenarios might not always work for 16.04.
