@rbasak, The reason for the omission of "skylake" from the changelog
entry for zesty is because zesty already had 3.20170511.1~ubuntu17.04.0
in -updates which contained the fixes for the majority of Skylake
processors, but not Kaby Lake.  So for zesty this release only fixes
kaby lake processors, and maybe a few high end skylake-x processors.
Since Xenial did not have that intermediate microcode version, this is
the first revision of the package that resolves the issue for both
skylake and kabylake processors.
