I quickly closed them with intent to shutdown the system but instead get the freeze and had to use magic sysrq to reboot.

It would be very helpful if you could look farther back in your logs and see if you can also see: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 351 at kernel/ucount.c:253 dec_ucount+0x43/0x5 Or anything else preceding the use-after-free. I am inclined to think they are the same issue but without seeing the WARN_ON_ONCE I can't safely conclude that. Eric
