I'd like to perform a bisect to figure out what commit caused this regression. We need to identify the earliest kernel where the issue started happening as well as the latest kernel that did not have this issue.
Can you test the following kernels and report back? We are looking for the first kernel version that exhibits this bug: v3.8 final: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8-raring v3.9 final: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.9-saucy v3.10 final: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.10-saucy v3.11-rc1: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11-rc1-saucy/ You don't have to test every kernel, just up until the kernel that first has this bug.

The 3.11, 3 versions tried including the proposed, hangs on "Platform eisa.0: Probing EISA bus 0" I also tried the 3.12.0-999 kernel at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/daily/2013-11-07-saucy/ and it hangs as well.
