For me, even with 3.9 this is the case. When I try to disconnect from DUN, at times I get thown to the text console with an oops. At times I just see the machine freeze in X11. At times the machine keeps working in X11 for a few seconds (or up to 1 minute), and in this case I can even see the oops in dmesg before the freeze or a crash.

Does this happen on every architecture? Mine is X64, with intel graphics and Dell Computer Corp. Wireless 370 Bluetooth.

If it happens on every possible architecture, it may be worth disabling BT DUN altogether, until someone upstream can look into it, since crashes and freezes may lead to data loss. Upstreams knows this since March, hence either it is very subtle to catch or there is really little interest in BT DUN.
