Any chance you can grab the latest SLES 12 kernel and run it with pti
and efi enabled to see if that works properly for you or not? I trust
SUSE's testing of their kernel, and odds are I'm just missing one of
their many other patches they have in their tree for other issues that
they have seen in the past.

If you want, I can just send you the full patch that they run on top of
the latest 4.4 stable tree, so you don't have to dig it out of their git
repo if you can't find the binary image.

thanks,
