I'm not sure of the exact commit that fixed this. Since Xenial is the development kernel, we are constantly applying commits from upstream. There were ~328 commits going from 4.4.0-11 to 4.4.0-13: One way to pin point the exact fix would be to perform a reverse bisect, but that can be time consum

Yes, the bug could have been introduced by an Ubuntu SAUCE patch. Testing the upstream kernels will tell us whether that is the case. Can you next the upstream v4.4.2 kernel? That is the upstream kernel Ubuntu 4.4.0-7-generic is based off of. If it does have the bug, then we know the bug was fix
