I built Yakkety, Xenial and Vivid test kernels with the request commit.
The can be downloaded from:

Yakkety: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1636656/yakkety
Xenial: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1636656/xenial
Vivid: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1636656/vivid

Can you test this kernels and see if they resolve this bug?

Trusty and Precise require some backporting, but I'll post a link to
them when they are built.

Bug description:
  The Hyper-V netvsc driver was looking at the incorrect status bits
  in the checksum info. It was setting the receive checksum unnecessary
  flag based on the IP header checksum being correct. The checksum
  flag is skb is about TCP and UDP checksum status. Because of this
  bug, any packet received with bad TCP checksum would be passed
  up the stack and to the application causing data corruption.
  The problem is reproducible via netcat and netem.

  This had a side effect of not doing receive checksum offload
  on IPv6. The driver was also also always doing checksum offload
  independent of the checksum setting done via ethtool.
