Indeed, you are running an old kern (3.2.0-54) which means it won't
have this fix:

3948659 xfs: Account log unmount transaction correctly

And that's likely to be the source of all your freeze/unfreeze
problems because it will eventually hang the log when it's leaked
all it's space in the ether....

We did get a few pointers earlier that 3948659 might be the cause of the freeze/unfreeze problems but now that you have confirmed it we'll upgrade the kernel. Thanks.
