Something similar has happened to me, I'm still trying to recover my EC2
instance ..

In Upstart config file ,
instead of 

--           exec /usr/sbin/sshd -D

inside scricpt block 
doing a config test with -t parameter
 and revert to a backup config like /etc/ssh/sshd_config.bk if config test 
fails 
could save someone from trouble..

++
script

    if [ "$(/usr/sbin/sshd -t 2>&1)" != "" ]; then
            exec /usr/sbin/sshd -D -f /etc/ssh/sshd_config.bk
    else
            exec /usr/sbin/sshd -D
    fi

end script
