Public bug reported:

Whenever I wake my computer from a "Suspend", System Monitor shows over
80 instances of kworker spontaneously get spawned.  If I move the mouse,
the PC crashes and I must restart.

If I don't touch the mouse and let the PC sit untouched for about 10
minutes, the 80 extra kworker daemons terminate and only the "normal" 8
remain.  The PC operates fine from then on.

I get similar behaviour on 3 different machines, all 64 bit 16.04LTS.
