git bisect shows:

bdced438acd83ad83a6c6fc7f50099b820245ddb is the first bad commit
commit bdced438acd83ad83a6c6fc7f50099b820245ddb
Author: Ming Lei <ming.lei@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Tue Oct 20 23:13:52 2015 +0800 

    block: setup bi_phys_segments after splitting

Reverting above commit on top if 4.4-rc1 seems to fix the problem for me.
