Tab corruption with hardware acceleration enabled on Mac OSX

Reported by andrew.r...@gmail.com, Mar 6 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_3) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/56.0.2924.87 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open several tabs across multiple windows 
2. Start changing tabs and moving tabs between windows
3. Eventually (randomly) tabs start to corrupt

What is the expected behavior?
Tabs should render fine

What went wrong?
Tabs stop working. Here are some symptoms:
1) Tab is blank white
2) Tab is all black
3) Tab is black with white boxes
4) Tab shows the contents of a previously selected tab

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 56.0.2924.87  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.12.3
Flash Version: 

The screen shot shows a tab showing both black and white content

This only appears to happen on older MacBookPro computers with hardware acceleration turned on. Issue no longer reproduces when hardware acceleration is disabled. I have not experienced the issue on my Work laptop- MacBookPro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015). Reinstalling, disabling extensions, resetting the chrome settings and other such techniques do not help. Appears to potentially be an issue with the graphics code.

My computer is a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2011)
