The shift back to a 5.15.x kernel ended up being delayed for a while for
various reasons.  The server concerned was eventually upgraded to 5.15.27 on
9 March 2022.  In that time, client machines have been turned on and off and
inevitably the conditions which caused the crash have been exercised many
times (libreoffice, firefox and thunderbird are used daily on almost all of
the clients).  The server has not experienced the crash since the upgrade. 
On the basis of this I think it's fair to consider our problem solved.

Thanks for your quick response to the report and the rapid provision of the
fix.
