I'm not willing to install an upstream kernel just yet.

I will keep an eye on the system over the next 48 hours before trying
that, as apt-get update, remove and upgrade of some older kernels and
packages seems to have calmed the issue over the last 18 hours.

I'm still running 3.19.0-30-generic though for now.
