I would suggest installing a 4.x kernel and see if that helps. I know that
5.x kernels can be a bit unstable on certain older SPARC machines.
If the issue goes away with an older kernel, try bisecting to find the commit
that introduced the issue.
Either way, it's good to have something which allows to reproduce the bug.
