And can you ensure 4.4 final is bad?  It is available from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.4-wily/

If 4.4 final is bad, I can reverse bisect between 4.4 and 4.5-rc1.
However, if 4.4 final is good(Which it probably will be),  we will have
to go back to performing a standard bisect between upstream 4.4.40 and
4.4.41.

The regression came via a 4.4.41 stable update from mainline.  However,
the bug is not happening in any of the other 4.5-rc1 or greater kernels
that you tested.  It might take a lot of testing from the results posted
in comment #31 to find the commit that fixes the bug.  It might be the
regression was introduced in one of the 4.5, 4.7 or 4.9 release
candidates and fixed right away.  Although it should have came down in
newer 4.4 stable updates but 4.4.55 still has the bug also per comment
#31.
