I first tested linux-image-4.6.0-040600rc1-generic_4.6.0-040600rc1.201603261930_amd64.deb and it *did* freeze.

I then tested linux-image-4.6.0-040600rc7-generic_4.6.0-040600rc7.201605081830_amd64.deb and it did not crash.

I then tested linux-image-4.6.0-040600rc4-generic_4.6.0-040600rc4.201604172330_amd64.deb and it did not crash.

I then tested linux-image-4.6.0-040600rc3-generic_4.6.0-040600rc3.201604120934_amd64.deb and it did not crash. However, when shutting down after my test, it oopsed and then did not shutdown, so I had to power off hard. I've captured the oops with my phone's cam if it's of any interest. Looked like a crash in the filesystem. Could have been a random btrfs crasher.

Then, I tested linux-image-4.6.0-040600rc2-generic_4.6.0-040600rc2.201604031130_amd64.deb and it *did* freeze after the first attempt to dock it to the station. I have not repeated the test though.

It felt as if the rc3 was also very slow when docking or undocking. It took a few seconds for the screen to blink, which happens every time my monitor configuration changes (i.e. after docking or undocking).

So the change happened somewhere between rc2 and rc3.
Note that my interest in building multiple kernels now is not very high.
