Hi,

I'm not an Ubuntu developer.

Did you read about CVE-2017-1000364, 
https://www.google.de/?gws_rd=ssl#q=ubuntu+CVE-2017-1000364 ?

Do you really expect a fix for a _high severity_ vulnerability to be
removed?

Sometimes it happens that getting rid of vulnerabilities breaks
software, not only caused by kernel fixe, sometimes user
space software gets completely dropped, if continuing to provide it
would cause a serious risk.

Regards,
Ralf

PS:

FWIW for good reasons not only Debian based distros, such as the Ubuntu
flavours care much about this high severity vulnerability:

https://www.google.de/?gws_rd=ssl#q=arch+linux+CVE-2017-1000364

[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ arch-audit --upgradable --quiet | grep linux
linux>=4.11.6-3

This isn't some minor annoyance bug.
