Hello Abhishek and Phillip,

I've discussed this with a few other engineers and it is to risky to
push such change this close to release. There are a few things that are
planned / needed to be done with "/boot" and we should target it at
u-series. This is a valid bug report / request, but i'm targeting it at
u-series for now.

We need to increase size of /boot, use ext4 (possible with journal,
extents and huge file options disabled), remove need for /boot at all
when one is using simple LVM volume group only. All of these changes are
straight-forward, but can have impact on existing deployments and these
are not features we'd be comfortable with deploying so late in the
cycle, way past Feature Freeze.

Regards,

Dimitri."
