In my case it was a HP nx6125, beeing unresponsive for about 5s, also e.g. NUM Led did not work (but was still set after the unresponsive phase ended). Looks like machine got stuck with irqs disabled? It came out that the problem was related to cpufreq (the real cause probably came from ACPI subsytem). The freq was limited via processor (_PPC) event and limitation got removed again at the same time, letting the machine switching down and up it hang in powernow-k8. Yes, it's unlikely that it's the same problem, but disabling cpufreq should be worth a test? Trying a kernel with CONFIG_DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP lockup should tell you at which place the machine hangs?
