In order to move forward with this, I would like a gentoo-sources-4.8.0 tree, which is no longer available on portage. Could anyone supply ?

Well, gentoo-sources is just the regular linux sources with some gentoo patches applied to it... So you just need to find the regular linux sources for 4.8.0, and you can retrieve gentoo's patches through git (go through the log for the gentoo-sources and find when it was removed and you can grab a copy of the ebuild and associated files that may have been removed at the same time...

Just looking at the linux kernel's site, they only have a link for 4.9 and 4.4 (among others), but I did not see a link for 4.8 kernel...

Considering it has been removed from kernel.org, this means it's no longer maintained.

If you really need it, you could download it from the git repository.

Code:

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git
cd linux-stable
git checkout v4.8.17
make config && make && make install


EDIT: It's also possible to retrieve them from the archive.

Same thing for ebuild
Code:
git clone https://anongit.gentoo.org/git/repo/gentoo.git
cd gentoo
git show ebd3a884fc41d3ad67198973187f90e9db1257b0

After a session of bisecting stock kernels, I found that the problem does not occur with 4.8.17 but does occur with 4.9.1.

Next to track down the source diff.
