Apologies for the repost, I'd forgotten to put RESOLVED in the subject line


I believe this issue has finally been resolved. There are two steps I
took. One was to upgrade to the 4.4.0-* kernel. The other was to disable
GkrellM. So far the system has been running perfectly for over a month.
The only time it's been restarted was due to a kernel update. 

Thanks to everyone who helped get this resolved.
