Random freezes in UXA regardless of KMS/UMS were fixed for me in the commits between -
  NEWS: Add notes for 2.7.99.1 snapshot
and
  Revert "Leave allocator running until lower-level CloseScreens are done"

on master branch. Also fixed in 2.7 branch (pre 2.7.1) as of -
  3D_STATE_VERTEX_BUFFERS takes four 32-bit values, not three.

whereas it was still broken in 2.7.0 release. My upstream bug report is here

The only remaining bug I am hitting with UXA is a freeze with very large pixmaps from some pages in firefox.
