slowpath warning logs

I got this warning a couple of times to me today on a Dell L502x (Intel Core i7-2630QM) and the PC froze for some time (30 seconds? A minute perhaps?)

When it happens, the severity is high because the PC locks up, but so far it has only happened twice since the kernel went stable.

Logs attached.

The PC froze for some seconds today and this was reported in the log. Might it be related?

Please attach full dmesg from boot to the problem with drm.debug=14 module parameter set. If it's a gpu hang, please attach the error state.

Sorry, I only have logs for the last few days and the logs don't contain the slowpath warning. I'm not sure I've seen the issue in the last month of using 3.16.

Please also try drm-intel-nightly branch from http://cgit.freedesktop.org/drm-intel. I suspect this might be fixed by

I no longer remember why I thought that, but it's been released in v3.18. Presumed fixed, closing. Please reopen if the problem persists with current kernels. Thank you.
