[Bug 1750215] [NEW] kernel 4.0.13-32-generic does not boot after initramfs

[leder]

*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

Public security bug reported:

I do not know where to file hardware related kernel bugs, so I did
choose grub2 package.

after update to ubuntu 17.10 the latest kernel mentioned above will not
default boot. the old distribution kernel 4.10 is fine and recovery
kernel does perform, too.

I have disk encryption and the affected kernel does not go further than
initramfs, i. e. there is not decryption password screen. in 4.10 there
is graphical decryption screen and in recovery kernel there is CLI
decryption prompt.

I want to boot current 4.13 kernel with all security features!
