Ok, did more bisect'ing. I had to skip a commit because the compile
failed but other than that, this is what I wound up with:
git bisect start '--' 'sound/hda' 'sound/pci/hda'
# good: [fe0d128c57bf927a713159f60a18d9f315d4d91d] ALSA: jack: Allow

Does this sound like it could be where the bug resides?. I created a
patch with `git format-patch -1
9b3dc8aa3fb1a5f38ca9501f20f6ea4dced10fa0` and tried to apply it to
kernel 4.6-rc1 but I failed. I didn't bother trying to hand-reverse it
because it looks like it would just cause breakage. Not sure what to
do next here so I'll wait and see what you think..
