Title:
  ubuntu-bug can't report bugs on kernel threads

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'm trying to report a bug where 'iwlagn' hogs my CPU

    PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND                                                                                                  
    903 root      15  -5     0    0    0 R   99  0.0 104:05.39 iwlagn  

  However, iwlagn being not a program, I can't use ubuntu-bug in any
  ways:

    ubuntu-bug 903
    The specified process ID does not belong to a program.

    ubuntu-bug iwalgn
    Package iwlagn does not exist

  and worse than that, clicking on the "report a bug" button on the
  right in this page https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/ leads me back to
  this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs instead of a bug
  submission form.

  And I can't find a way to submit a new bug outside of a package in
  Ubuntu...
