Public bug reported:

UBUNTU info
Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
Release:        18.04

PACKAGE info
ovmf:
  Installed: 0~20180205.c0d9813c-2
  Candidate: 0~20180205.c0d9813c-2
  Version table:
 *** 0~20180205.c0d9813c-2 500
        500 http://nova.clouds.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/universe amd64 
Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Expected:
Virtual machines loading from the UEFI provided by the ovmf package should work 
fine.
This is working correctly in Ubuntu Xenial with ovmf package 
0~20160408.ffea0a2c-2 that provides EFI v2.60 by EDK II.

What happens:
Virtual machines loading from the UEFI crash with kernel panic.
Provided UEFI version: EFI v2.70 by EDK II.

To be able to correctly boot up a VM on bionic, we downgraded the package.
Here's an example from a succesfull automated devstack job:
