I've got this too. The crash reporter told me so and opened up this web-
page for me, asking me to comment.

This doesn't appear to be a hardware problem to me. Why has my computer
been running fine for years with all kernels up to an including
3.19.0.22 then? It feels more like Ubuntu is choosing not to support my
hardware any more, and rather than telling me that and ensuring that I
don't get given updates that would break my computer, it has chosen to
simply apply updates in a way that brick it. Thanks! This bug caused the
install of kernel 3.19.0.25 to complete but with errors like so:

depmod: ../libkmod/libkmod-elf.c:207: elf_get_mem: Assertion `offset < 
elf->size' failed.
Failed to run depmod
...
dpkg: error processing package linux-image-generic (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

in such a way that when my computer reboots it goes straight into
initramfs claiming it can't find a disk... and yet it runs fine when I
choose kernel 3.19.0.22 from the grub menu. I've run a full disk-check
and memory check from the bios and it didn't identify any problems.

In my opinion, this should be classed as "Importance -> High, Confirmed
-> Valid". Thank you.
