Since yesterday, system completely freezes up (mouse, keyboard, open terminal etc freezing, Unity panel clock and ssh still running) shortly after login, with fwupd using 100% CPU. Killing it doesn't do anything, but "sudo pkill bamfdaemon" resolves the freeze-up.
Interestingly, when I tried the first few times to reboot through ssh, it did, but then got hanging at the shutdown screen, only with a hard-reset left as option.
I also tried to boot an older kernel, same issue. Seems another update broke the system.
I will attach my dmesg and syslog, maybe they're useful.

Since the launchpad attachments didn't want to open any selector window when clicked, I posted my logs to pastebin, will be available there for one month.
