The verification of this has failed as the fix was incorrect.

Backing up initrd.img-4.10.0-19-generic to /boot/initrd.img-4.10.0-19-generic.old-dkms
Making new initrd.img-4.10.0-19-generic
(If next boot fails, revert to initrd.img-4.10.0-19-generic.old-dkms image)

DKMS: uninstall completed.
Examining /etc/kernel/postrm.d .

The .old-dkms file is removed before a new one is created (see the
Backing up bits). So the remove_initrd_backup run needs to be reordered
for after the dkms call.
