I backported the patch from upstream that they believe will resolve this issue. It might be too late to include this in natty, however if people test it quickly and if it is found to eliminate the freezes on i915 maybe there's a chance.
My backport patch is available in my PPA here: https://launchpad.net/~bryce/+archive/fig
If you test it and find it resolves the issue sufficiently let me know.
