One other clue: Someone on the HP support forum suggested that the problem 
might be related to the x58 chipset and sent me a link to a data sheet:

https://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7014344

I'll be reading that data sheet more closely later today, but my current 
impression is that solving the problem would take a BIOS patch. Or maybe the 
chip firmware can be flashed directly? But even if it could, the underlying 
instability might remain. I just don't know.

I also have a Z800. I've been trying to install 4.0-rc4. The installer tells me 
that the following features are missing:

IOMMU/VT-d/AMD-Vi
Interrupt Remapping

I have a ticket open on the HP support forum asking for help. Someone helpfully 
suggested a few BIOS settings that I might try, but I have not been having any 
luck.

Might anyone here have any suggestions?
