I disagree. The common case only requires room for three kernels (we're
supposed to always keep two kernels, so we need room for those two plus
a third one being upgraded to before the old one is removed). I don't
see any reason to make this partition larger to accommodate particular
debugging scenarios - you only ever boot one kernel at a time, you don't
need to have all possible kernels involved in debugging unpacked on the
system at the same time.

However, if the partition is now too small to accommodate even 3 kernels
in xenial, that's a major problem that needs addressing ASAP.
