Bug description:

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1592481

  I was checking the xenial-next and it's missing a commit from December last year that was merged after 4.4. The commit is 0d3d054b43719:
  http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=0d3d054b43719ef33232677ba27ba6097afdafbc

  It's an important commit since without it the CBC and CTR will fail
  the sanity check.
