Acer TM (TravelMate) B117M N3150 processor using SSD (manufactured on 
Jully-2016)

Lubuntu 14.04 LTS + LTSEnablementStack
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack)

We have about 110 units of each model. Some of them are freezing.

Tested 2 machines of each model during more than 72 hours. Playing
Youtube videos with Chrome at full screen, playing with MineCraft (Java
application), using the webcam with guvcview, running powertop, pinging
our gateway, showing iwevent...

Kernel version 4.4.0-36-generic 64bit

Using c6off+c7on.sh (see comment #139) seems to solve the problem.
However, N3150 is seen has CHT (Cherry Trail) processor, not BYT (Bay
Trail) processor. So, for this case it's necessary to modify
c6off+c7on.sh for cases C6*-CHT and C7*-CHT. cstateInfo.sh (see comment
#139) shows all the state-names, if doubts about it.

N2930, N2940 --> Bay Trail Processors
(http://ark.intel.com/products/codename/55844/Bay-Trail?q=bay%20trail#@All)

N3150 --> Braswell Processor
(http://ark.intel.com/products/codename/66094/Braswell#@All)
But kernel code sees as Cherry Trail Processor (???)
(http://ark.intel.com/products/codename/46629/Cherry-Trail)

Upgraded the machines to latest stable kernel (4.8.10). No script
applied. It also seems to solve the problem. Solution found at
https://forum.manjaro.org/t/intel-bay-trail-freezes-the-linux-
kernel/1931/12

For B117M, Acer technical services changed the SSD unit. But the system
continued freezing. At comment #126 one user solved his problem updating
the SSD firmware. Our 2 tested B117M seem to be stable with 4.8.10
kernel.

Bug description:
  After upgrading from stock Ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04 my laptop
  consistently freezes up and is unresponsive to keyboard or mouse. The
  only way is to do a hard shutdown. I'm usually in a browser when this
  happens, and often watching a video or two. It seems to happen more
  often in Google Chrome than Firefox, but it happens with both. It has
  happened at least once with no videos loaded. I haven’t observed it
  freeze / hang when I’m not in a browser, but that's mainly what i use
  my laptop for, so that's where most of my time is spent.
