New test result today seems to be a intel P-state related problem.
I had reverted everything to their default state, with only the following 
changes in TLP settings:

/etc/default/tlp

# Set Intel P-state performance: 0..100 (%)
# Limit the max/min P-state to control the power dissipation of the CPU.
# Values are stated as a percentage of the available performance.
# Requires an Intel Core i processor with intel_pstate driver.
CPU_MIN_PERF_ON_AC=100
CPU_MAX_PERF_ON_AC=100
CPU_MIN_PERF_ON_BAT=100
CPU_MAX_PERF_ON_BAT=100

Now the machine never crashed no matter what tricked I played against
it. This workaround seemed to work both under a normal Linux kernel and
a realtime kernel.

I guess the crash was triggered by flipping the P-state to save power.
In the previous report I was using WebGL Aquarium to do the test, which
has a rather linear stress. But later when I was using Krita, whose
stresses on the CPU comes in spikes, the old workaround failed to work.
When connecting to an external monitor, it also did not crash anyway but
I guess it was using full power all the way because of the dualview
requires that much power.
