Historically, we have sought to avoid publishing to -updates of SRUs
that only fix autopkgtests because fixing the autopkgtests does not
change the behavior of the package in a way that benefits the end user
and justifies the download cost.

However, between the fact that this is initramfs-tools, and the recent
changes to the behavior of proposed-migration, I think it's important
that an exception be made here.  The initramfs-tools package is critical
to how our systems boot, and we cannot afford to have regressions in
test coverage of this package.  If an update to the Linux kernel has the
consequence that the baseline (i.e. in -updates) for initramfs-tools has
regressed, this means that any future packages which trigger initramfs-
tools autopkgtests will NOT have their SRUs blocked by test failures,
whether or not they have introduced further regressions in initramfs-
tools.

Unless we land this package in -updates, ensuring that we have a green
baseline.
