UISearchController's view behaviour is weird indeed, but there is a simple workaround.

• Use an additional container view
• put UISearchController's view inside
• set UISearchController's view autoresizing mask to UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight
• set UISearchController's frame to container's view bounds

At this point UISearchController.view won't resize beyond container.bounds.
