I reported exactly the same problem in mid-February on -amd64 with my
HP nx6125.  I found that it was random but could be triggered by
changing the CPU clock using either cpufreq or raw ACPI frequency
control.

Unfortunately, I don't have a solution.  I've taken to manually
adjusting dev.cpu.0.freq based on what I'm doing and have only had
a single hang in the past four months.
