I don't know what Manoj's comment is about but this bug is about the
package failing to build from source for armhf. This is something we can
check in LP and there are armhf builds of kexec-tools for Xenial and
Yakkety so I think (my only doubt comes from Manoj's comment) the
verification is done for both releases.

Status in kexec-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in kexec-tools source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed
Status in kexec-tools source package in Yakkety:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  On armhf system kexec build fails as follows:
  gcc -g -O2 -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security 
-fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wdate-time -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 
-I./include -I./util_lib/include -Iinclude/ -I./kexec/libfdt 
-I./kexec/arch/arm/include  -c -MD -o kexec/arch/arm/phys_to_virt.o 
kexec/arch/arm/phys_to_virt.c
  make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'kexec/arch/arm/iomem.o', needed by 
'build/sbin/kexec'.  Stop.

  The fix for this issue is already upstream:

  Subject: [PATCH] arm: do not build iomem.o target with no soruce

  Header files should be added to the distribution but not
  used to derive targets for compilation. In this an attempt was
  made to build iomem.o, but iomem.c does not exist so this fails.

  Fixes: 1574ff1aae4f ("arm: include phys_to_virt.h and iomem.h in 
distribution")
  Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <ho...@verge.net.au>
  Reviewed-by: Pratyush Anand <pan...@redhat.com>

  [Test Case]
  Build kexec-tools package from Xenial/Yakkety source in armhf system.

  [Regression Potential]
  Since patch is confined to arm there is a low overall risk of regression
