Thanks for testing. The bug will only be fixed if the commit in mainline that fixes the bug was also cc'd to stable.

We should probably perform a "Reverse" kernel bisect to identify the exact commit that fixes the bug. Then we will know if it in fact was cc'd to stable. If it was not, we can request it in stable and SRU it to Ubuntu.

We first need to identify the last bad kernel and first good one. Can you test the v4.9-rc1 kernel to try and narrow the affect versions down further. It can be downloaded from:

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.9-rc1/

If v4.9-rc1 is also good, we would want to test 4.8 final. If it is bad, we would want to test some of the newere 4.9 release candidates.

Thanks in advance!
