I agree that a delay of 60s may well be reported as a hang, but at
least for the Dell case I can test, the hang is definitely at least
close to infinite. Definitely longer than a couple of minutes.

So the Sony and Dell issues may be different. That said, vt-d was
suspected for both, and apparently does match your kernel versions, so
it's entirely possible that the fundamental cause is the same even if
the symptoms are slightly different.
