I'm also on Arch with kernel 4.8.6-1. I have an i7-6500U.
I guess the only "special" thing I have on the cmdline is intel_iommu=on, but I
don't see any memory errors as reported by syphyr.
I have a way to avoid the problems, but that will limit the package c-state to
PC2, let me try to explain.
If I do not do modifications to any of the kernel's defaults, the cpu never
gets to a package c-state lower than PC2 (1)(or higher, whichever way you want
to see it).
If I enable sata ALPM then the cpu will to go into PC6 and that is when I start
to see the problem.
Further, if I turn on auto suspend for a usb bluetooth device, the cpu will now
get into PC7 and I also see the problem in this case. I have not been able to
get the cpu to go into PC8~PC10 even when doing all the changes recommended by
powertop.
(1) The cpu's datasheet states clearly that "Long term reliability cannot be
assured unless all the Low-Power Idle States are enabled.". I'm not sure if
this applies to package c-states but even if it doesn't I would like the cpu to
be as efficient as possible so that I get more time when using battery and so
that there is less heat and noise.
