I have a lot of problems with firefox, thunderbird, and sometimes parts of the kernel occasionally aborting because "something went wrong, restarting". > You could try downgrading to the previous version of the dnf packages > to see if it is a dnf error.

I went off site today (w/laptop) and things worked well where I was. When I got back home, I un-suspended the laptop but forgot to plug it in. After 2 hours, the battery discharged. After plugging back in, when I tried to reboot (kernel-4.9.13-101.fc24), it hung twice trying to start the gui. When I rebooted with kernel-4.9.13-100.fc24, it came up, and the dnf update succeeded! Gee, now I have 4.9.17 kernel to try!
