I've searched for similar reports and found none specific to GNOME
Console (kgx), although this one about the whole Xorg server crashing
looks similar [0]. One of the commenter there also mentions the problem
vanishing after upgrading their memory to 32 GiB, so perhaps it's
related to something being OOM'd ?

Anyway, if you can reproduce this, I think the best place to report the
issue would be upstream on that mesa tracker: they are more likely to
figure out the actual problem and come up with a fix.
