Public bug reported:

Description is almost the same as
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1807534

Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS, all packages up to date
gnome-shell 3.28.4-0ubuntu18.04.3

Sometimes gnome-shell freezes.
I can move the mouse pointer, but the rest of the UI is completely frozen and 
does not react to mouse clicks or keystrokes.

If I try to change login session with Ctrl-Alt-F1, I can login but the
screen remains black.

I generally manage to "unfreeze" gnome-shell by switching to a virtual
console and typing "killall -3 gnome-shell"

dmesg shows a page allocation failure in gnome-shell, cf attached file.
