Title:
  System hostname is not scrubbed from HibernationDevice

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Personally I don't consider the system's hostname to be sensitive
  information, but someone must do because bugs created by "ubuntu-bug"
  appear to substitute "hostname" for the hostname in some entries, such
  as ProcKernelCmdLine. The real hostname is still present in
  HibernationDevice though, so that one was missed.

  If it was deemed worth eliding this info from ProcKernelCmdLine then
  it's probably worth doing it in HibernationDevice as well, as this
  disk layout is the default for putting everything inside dm-crypt.
