If you could now confirm 44ca7478d46aaad488d916f7262253e000ee60f9 as not causing the freeze we have finally isolated the exact commit that is causing the freezes.
I'm on it.

On a side note, for those earlier commits (such as 44ca7478d46aaad488d916f7262253e000ee60f9, which I've been testing again during the day), do you also find that the system becomes very slow? As in there is a high CPU usage, but not caused by any running program? I've seen this again today, where top reports all programs using only a small amount of cpu (a grand total of 8% or so), and yet my CPU usage was almost 50%.
Yes, it becomes slower, but the CPU usage is only slightly higher. I just notice it, when watching movies by experiencing lags every 5 seconds for instance.) But I guess, that should not bother us, since this issue is none (at least for me) in higher kernel-versions and I doubt, that this has something to do with our bug. Do you agree?
