exists with
linux-image-4.4.0-040400rc7-generic_4.4.0-040400rc7.201512272230_amd64 as well.

Spyros Theodoritsis, could you please test the latest upstream kernel
available from the very top line at the top of the page from
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D (the release
names are irrelevant for testing, and please do not test the daily
folder)? Install instructions
