VirtualBox driver crashes when rebooting with kexec on Ubuntu 16.04

Description

Restarting into another kernel is faster with kexec. There's a crash when I try to reboot into another kernel with kexec. The problem (says the screenshot) is because VirtualBox.

The commands I issued were:

diwou@diwou-VirtualBox:~$ sudo kexec -l /boot/vmlinuz-uname -r --reuse-cmdline [sudo] password for diwou: diwou@diwou-VirtualBox:~$ sudo systemctl kexec

Then I can see a crash on the GUI screen...

This bug was reported 5 years ago, I read it was marked as obsolete, but I think it's not fixed.

If it was already previously reported, why not post a comment to the actual ticket (number?) instead of creating a duplicate?
