I've taken this patch and applied it on top of next-20170203
and confirm it fixes the regression. I've also tested next-20170206
which has the fix and confirm that boots as well.

Do we have any test units which can kick off regularly to test against such
type of regression in the future or is it not worth it?

Thanks Boris!
