Title:
  The trusty/aws kernel package ships too many modules

Status in linux-aws package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in linux-aws source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  = SRU Justification =

  == Impact ==

  When building the linux-aws kernel for 16.04/Xenial and 18.04/Bionic,
  only a limited subset of modules is added to the binary package.
  However the build environment for the 14.04/Trusty variant was
  incorrectly set up and includes all modules which get built.

  == Fix ==

  Change the setup, so all linux-aws kernel packages do the same thing.

  == Testcase ==

  Downloading the binary kernel package and check that the number of .ko
  files in there are below 1000. Also the package size is an indicator
  as correctly its about 19MB and right now more like 38MB.

  == Risk of regression ==

  Considering low since those modules that get stripped should be
  hardware drivers which are not really useful inside a cloud
  environment.
