Public bug reported:

Maybe related: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109051

This system has CPU Intel i5-3570k (no overclocking) and the system
suffers from random hangs (total freeze with no response to power
button, SysRq combinations and nothing in any logs). The hang seems to
be related to Google Chrome so it might be related to GPU (intel HD
4000) rendering.

Adding intel_idle.max_cstate=1 seems to help a lot. Without this kernel
flag, the system did hang randomly between 15 min and a couple of days.
With this flag the system has frozen first time today after uptime of 3
weeks.

So it seems that this CPU is also affected by issues described in the
above linked kernel bug. However, as the system did hang earlier today,
even this workaround is not perfect.
