dmesg with drm.debug=0x1e

The most reliable way to reproduce this for me is logging in and opening the Unity dash. The system will appear to hang for a few seconds and then recover. The hang happens very frequently. Sometimes it never recovers and I have to reboot.

Tried on Linus' 4.5rc2 kernel and intel-drm-nightly from 2016-02-06 with the same result. The default Ubuntu 16.04 kernel (4.4.0-2-generic) boots with a black screen, so I haven't tried any earlier kernels. Attaching the dmesg and crash dump from intel-drm-nightly.

After some more experimentation, the hang does not happen if I boot with i915.enable_rc6=0
