I'm not excessively familiar with the kernel's packaging, and since it's a bit of an important package, I'd appreciate a second look from someone else. Anyway, I could easily reproduce the issue in a stretch amd64 chroot, and can confirm this issue goes away once linux-latest rebuilt with this patch (plus gencontrol.py magic of course). (We'll need a higher version in unstable, too, but I see 82 was uploaded and reached NEW already, so hopefully that'll be sorted out by the time the point release happens.) KiBi.
