I built a Xenial test kernel[0] with the fix[1] suggested in comment #64. The fix was mentioned upstream[2].

That particular patch has not landed in mainline yet, but it was also cc'd to stable for all 4.4+ kernels.

This commit can be added as a SAUCE patch if we find that it resolves this bug, it will be SAUCE until the real patch is applied through the normal stable update process.

Can you test this kernel and see if it resolves this bug? Note, with this test kernel you need to install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages.
