Thanks for the additional testing, Olli.  The rc1 kernels in comments
#10 and #22 should be the same builds.  One way to tell would be to boot
them and run uname -a, then compare the build stamps.

It sounds like we've concluded the following:

v3.10 final: good
v3.11 rc1: bad
v3.11-rc4: good
v3.11-rc5: bad

It appears this bug was introduced in 3.11-rc1, but was fixed in rc2 or
rc3.  Then it was introduced againg, or a similar bug introduced, in
rc5.

Since we are bisecting between 3.10 and 3.11-rc1 in bug 1218004 , it
might be best for us to focus on the bisect between rc4 and rc5 with
your bug.

The v3.11 final kernel has now been released by Linus.  It might be a
good idea to test this kernel to confirm it still has this bug, or if it
fixes it.  It can be downloaded from:

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11-saucy/

Can you test 3.11 final when you have a chance?  If it still has the
bug, we can continue with the bisect.

  systems works for a few minutes then stalls completely

  was able to get a dmesg (attached pic below) shortly before the hard
  freeze. Attached kern.log should have same information starting at at
  8:07:35

  other attachments were created via ubuntu-bug linux prior to the
  8:07:35 crash

  systems works fine on
