The Xen Project CI has six machines which were affected by this
regression.  (Kernel messages are near-identical to those reported
by others in this bug.)  As suggested I downloaded this kernel;

  https://people.debian.org/~benh/packages/jessie-pu/linux-image-3.16.0-4-amd64_3.16.51-3~a.test_amd64.deb

and I can confirm that this fixes the issue.

We will continue to use this kernel for the affected machines, until
the next Debian point release (in which I hope this will be fixed).

Thanks to Ben for the quick fix and to #debian-kernel for the pointer
to the right bug report.

Regards,
Ian.
