Subject: next-20150610 - repeated hangs at e1000e_phc_gettime+0x2e/0x60

I'm seeing repeated hard lockups on my Dell Latitude E6530.
Helpful info:

0) next-20150603 works, so the problem landed in linux-next in the last week.

1) All 3 times happened while I was at home, using wireless, so
the interface didn't have link and was ifconfig'ed down.

2) Remarkably similar times for it to blow up:

[14513.365378] Kernel panic - not syncing: Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu 1
[14482.271716] Kernel panic - not syncing: Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu 3
[14479.906820] Kernel panic - not syncing: Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu 0

(I suspect the offsets were caused by differences in how long it took me
to correctly enter the cryptLUKS passphrase for my encrypted root filesystem)

Oddly enough, I don't see any patches to the e1000e driver in quite some
time... but that's where it keeps locking up.

This ringing any bells?
