Yes. I have a Seagate Expansion Portable 4TB USB 3.0 disk. The 4.4 kernel use UAS against this disk and it corrupted the NTFS filesystem that the disk came with. I was able to fix the filesystem with Windows but the errors happened again. Linux utilities do not have a chkdsk equivalent that can operate on NTFS. An ugly workaround I'm using now is to disable UAS for this disk with modprobe "options usb-storage quirks=0bc2:2322:u".
