Do you have a machine that could be used to test some kernels?  If so,
we can perform a kernel bisect to identify the commit that caused the
regression.

Title:
  [arm64] compute nodes unstable after upgrading from 4.2 to 4.4 kernel

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:

Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Hi,

  In order to investigate bug LP#1531768, we upgraded some arm64 compute
  nodes (swirlices) to a 4.4 kernel. I think it made the VMs work
  better, but the hosts became extremely unstable.

  After some time, getting a shell on them would be impossible.
  Connecting on the VSP, you'd get a prompt, and once you typed your
  username and password, you'd see the motd but the shell would never
  spawn.

  Because of these instability issues, all the arm64 compute nodes are
  now back on 4.2. However, we managed to capture "perf record" data
  when a host was failing. I'll attach it to the bug. Perhaps it will
  give you hints as to what we can do to help you troubleshoot this bug
  further.

  Once we have your instructions, we'll happily reboot one (or a few)
  nodes to 4.4 to continue troubleshooting.

  Thanks !
