There was this thread about our systems hanging, and the workaround was
to revert to mq-deadline from bfq:

There are a few threads on AskFedora about systems hanging. They're not
the easiest to debug but we did suggest people try switching to
mq-deadline to see if it helps:

I don't know enough about this to say if it's a bug and if it has been
fixed.
