I just got this same crash during a window switch (Activities Overview)
in GNOME. The desktop completely freezes (input devices continue to
work).

Some additional system info. Also note this is a Xen HVM in my case, and
that the system was pending a reboot after upgrading to
4.10.0-38-generic kernel. This is the first time seeing this specific
error, although I've been having a lot of Xorg-related crashes in
general on this particular system.
