I have had similar symptoms with my home PC, which I believe were due to
the SATA controller. However, my problems started when I bought it
about a year ago, then running 3.8-stable, so they were definitely not
due to the 4.0 upgrade. Also, they occurred only when using the amd64
GENERIC.MP kernel (dual core cpu). Unfortunately I have not had the
time to troubleshoot it properly. My problem was temporarily resolved
by changing the boot drive to a standard IDE drive, and I have not had a
lockup for several months.

I saw this a couple of times with one X snapshot a few months ago, but
not since then. FWIW, this is my dmesg:
