Uhm, sorry too late in the evening... What I wanted to say is: I tried the proposed kernel (4.8.0-55-generic #58~16.04.1-Ubuntu) the whole day long, and NO connection spam appeared. This means the fix seems to work. As I don't know how to set the tag, or have insufficient rights, please modify the tag to verification-done-yakkety.
