Please edit your question and add the results of lsb_release -d. — Chai T. Rex, Oct 01 '17 at 20:29

Although your kernel build string contains "16.04.1", you are probably running all up to date.

Your kernel build string does not indicate the state of the packages your system has installed. The tool to use is lsb_release. E.g.:

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
Release:        16.04
Codename:       xenial

Your kernel installed appears to be the hardware enablement variant: linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04. The one you are running is the latest one available.
