If upstream 4.10 works, but Ubuntu 4.10.0-19 does not, then that indicates the bug was introduced by an Ubuntu specific SAUCE patch.
We should bisect the Ubuntu kernels. We need to identify the last good Ubuntu kernel and the first bad one. We know that 4.10.0-19 is bad, so we should test some earlier versions. Can you next test Ubuntu 4.10.0-9? It can be downloaded from: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/12033595 For this kernel, you need to install both the linux-image and linux- image-extra .deb packages.
