Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream stable kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v4.4 stable kernel[0].
If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'. Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed". Thanks in advance.

Until kernel version 4.4.0-96 this worked without any issues. However if a computer updates to kernel 4.4.0.97.102, using the same configs and samba version, it stops working and reports a "ls: cannot access xx: File name too long" error. (where xx is a foldername) Also if you run "ls -all" you will see: d????????? ? ? ? ? ?
