Michael Doube, thank you for taking the time to report this bug and
helping to make Ubuntu better. However, I am closing it because the bug

functional)

Michael Doube, the next step is to fully reverse commit bisect from
kernel 4.4 to 4.9 in order to identify the last bad commit, followed
immediately by the first good one. Once this good commit has been
identified, it may be reviewed for backporting. Could you please do this
following
Michael Doube, would you need a backport to a release prior to Zesty?
Yes, to 16.04 LTS
