1) Problem Description:

    Virt-install command to create Ubuntu 16.04 guest fails with ' Could
not find an installable
    distribution'  on s390x architecture.

2) This patch JUST enabled Ubuntu 16.04 s390x architecture detection.
     For other architecture, it's already enabled with Ubuntu 16.04
detection.
     As reference, you can download the Installation ISO and take a look at
     the install tree.

3) I've tested this patch and works fine for s390x architecture.

Ubuntu 16.04 public download URL for all architecture, daily build.
