System: NetBSD speedy.whooppee.com 10.99.12 NetBSD 10.99.12 (SPEEDY 2025-03-28 23:40:52 UTC) #0: Sat Mar 29 00:36:14 UTC 2025 paul%speedy.whooppee.com@localhost:/build/netbsd-local/obj/amd64/sys/arch/amd64/compile/SPEEDY amd64
Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:
At unpredictable interval, and with no known/reproducible trigger, the
keyboard and mouse events stop.  All keyboard activity, including Ctrl-
Alt sequences for switching vt or entering ddb, just stop.  And, after
approximately 1 minute, background processes seem to stop - as an example,
a running xclock ceases to display movement of the seconds hand.

Most occurrences of this have occurred while moving the cursor in a
browser window.  Both firefox and chromium exhibit the bug, but chromium
"feels less likely" to happen.

Since it is impossible to enter ddb, I can't collect any additional info.
I am just filing this PR in case someone else runs into something similar
with more debug tools available.
