Hey,

1. In the Debian archive there can be only one version of a package at
one time so there will be always only the version compatible to the
current kernel version. The upgrades are needed since there are new
development in the module and changes in the kernel interfaces.
Normally the linux kernel should be already be 4.8. in testing, too,
but it seems that there are problems with the package so the aufs was
unfortunately faster in testing.

2. There is a snapshot of the version 4.7+20160912-2:
http://snapshot.debian.org/package/aufs/4.7%2B20160912-2/
