Did you happen to have a chance to test the latest mainline kernel, posted in comment #2? Mainline is now up to -rc7, so the link to the kernel would be:

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.6-rc7-wily/

If the bug is fixed in mainline, we can perform a reverse bisect to identify the commit that fixes it.

However, if the bug still exists in mainline, we would want to perform a regular kernel bisect to find the commit that introduced the regression. To perform a bisect, we need to identify the last good and first bad kernel versions. Per comment #7 v3.16 is good, but v3.19 is bad. We would want to test the versions in between. So if mainline still has the bug, can you test the following upstream kernels:

v3.17: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.17-utopic/
v3.18: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.18-vivid/

Once we have these results, we can narrow down the versions further to individual release candidates.

Thanks in advance!
