For reference, I've found some other reports with the same basic issue -
Wayland crash with an error like this:

Title:
Xwayland crashed with wl_registry@2: error 0: invalid global wl_output
(36) after kernel: [drm:intel_mst_disable_dp [i915]] *ERROR* failed
to update payload -22
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I turned off my screen for a few hours then turned it on again and my
session was no longer there and i had to login again.
The following lines from syslog at the time that i turned on the
screen again look suspicious. My hypothesis is that the error from the
Intel kernel driver caused the "Fatal server error" "wl_registry@2:
error 0: invalid global wl_output (36)" in gnome-shell. Since the
screen is actually still operational (after all, the computer didn't
crash, only that session, and i was immediately shown the login screen
and able to login again), what should have happened is that gnome-
shell should have gracefully dealt with whatever happened without a
fatal error.
This is the first time this has happened, and it did not used to
happen before my upgrade to Artful a few days ago.
