I have been away from checking my open source software development e-mail Inbox for a while, so sorry for not responding right away.
Would it be okay if you can repost this bug report with http://bugs.freedesktop.org?
It is not your fault not posting the bug report over at bugs.freedesktop.org, but just for your information, here is the detailed instructions on how to do it.
The following is an excerpt from the OpenChrome Version 0.4.0 README file.

Where to File a Bug Report
--------------------------

In order to file a bug report, please visit http://bugs.freedesktop.org. 
When you file the bug, file it against "xorg." When specifying the 
component, please select "Driver/openchrome." This allows a message to 
be sent to openchrome-devel mailing list, so that developers can be 
notified of the bug.
    It is highly recommended to file the bug report over at 
http://bugs.freedesktop.org rather than sending a message to 
openchrome-devel mailing list. Also, filing a bug report against the 
Linux / BSD distribution you are using (i.e., Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, 
etc.) will likely be a waste of your time since the developers for those 
distributions do not directly work on developing OpenChrome.

Again, if you can include the Xorg.0.log files for both Linux kernel versions, that will be helpful.
I do see something wrong with Linux 4.5.x kernel, and I will like to think that it is their problem, not OpenChrome's.
