Checked with Gavin today and he is of the opinion that since the backport effort for 16.04.2 is potentially high hence it will be better to target 16.04.3 for this feature that would be based on a newer kernel (>=4.9) and most of the needed patches already present.
So requesting canonical to ignore this bug for 16.04/16.10 HWE kernel trees.
