Public bug reported:

When mutter was upgraded to 3.26.1, maximising windows in gnome-shell
(xorg session) and budgie-desktop and subsequently closing those windows
causes the window manager to crash;

after a couple of times the whole session crashes and you are left at
the login prompt.

This is a known issue upstream:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cfg?id=788666

Note: under budgie random crashes of the desktop have been observed:

https://github.com/budgie-desktop/budgie-desktop/issues/1189

These have been traced back by budgie upstream to the same bugzilla
issue above.

We have tested the suggested fix in the bugzilla report and can confirm
that both the gnome-shell (xorg) session no longer crashes and (for us)
the instability issues with budgie desktop are no longer observed.
