Ok, we now have a minimal patch for the kernel to disable PIE. This
reflects into the headers packages so that DKMS packages building
against those will also have PIE disabled.  Will send to kernel-team@
for review once it passes final testing.

  Installing the latest 4.4.0-22 kernel ends with that error logged into dkmsbuildlog
  (only affect yakkety kernel; 4.4.0-22 kernel installation on xenial is fine)

  the latest error logged is:

  Looks like it is related to the latest changes updates: gcc-6/gcc-5 5.3.1-16ubuntu2 (some packages built with gcc-6; gcc-5 disabled for the packages built with gcc-6)
  Maybe some alternatives has not been updated to take care of these changes, as asked some time ago:

  This has been firstly reported against a nvidia crash:
