[Bug 1244438] Re: EOL notification system required for HWE kernels in LTSs
Consider a debconf high priority notice on the final update (postinst?).
Or something else that will generate a root email, perhaps?

Bug description:
We need to have some mechanism to allow us to record that you have an
EOL kernel installed which will no longer recieve updates.
For example for the kernel when a kernel is going EOL the last upload
should include an appropriate file:
/var/lib/update-notifier/kernel-eol
We need to coordinate this with the notifier itself to ensure it is
displayed.
