I have an EC2 instance on AWS that tends to freeze several times per week. When 
it freezes it stops responding to network traffic, disk I/O stops, and CPU goes 
to 100%. The system comes back fine after a reboot. I was finally able to get a 
kernel backtrace from when this happened today, which I have attached to this 
email.

The VM in question runs Debian Jessie, and has 3 BTRFS filesystems, including 
the root filesystem. Details are included below.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Alex
