I'm personally not an xfs expert, but let me leave those two comments:
- The test was unfortunately done on an old and outdated kernel from 16.04.1: 
4.4.0-36
  which got already replaced by several newer kernels
  Today we are already on level: 4.4.0.127.133
  (and an even newer one is in the 'pipe' - in proposed: 4.4.0.128.134)
     $ rmadison --arch=ppc64el linux-generic | grep xenial
      linux-generic | 4.4.0.21.22    | xenial          | ppc64el
      linux-generic | 4.4.0.127.133  | xenial-security | ppc64el
      linux-generic | 4.4.0.127.133  | xenial-updates  | ppc64el
      linux-generic | 4.4.0.128.134  | xenial-proposed | ppc64el
  So please always update the kernel to the latest version from 
<ubuntu-release>-updates
  (or even proposed) before running such kinds of tests.
  Just make sure you have access to the updates (Ubuntu archive mirror) and do 
(something like):
    sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade && sudo apt autoremove
  (and in case a kernel update was installed, reboot to activate it)
  So please re-run this test on the latest 4.4.0 version (today either 
4.4.0.127.133
  or even 4.4.0.128.134 from proposed.)
- Does this problem also happen with the (latest) upstream 4.4 kernel?
  Knowing this would help to narrow down the issue.
