ChromeOS Minnie crash reboots ~30s after sign-in, rendering it essentially unusable.

Project Member Reported by w...@chromium.org, Apr 12 2017

Issue description

Chrome Version: 59.0.3054.0 dev
OS: ChromeOS Minnie

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Sign-in to Chrome.
(2) Click to restore tabs after crash, if necessary.

What happens?

Device crash-reboots after ~30s.

It's hard to get it to stay up long enough to grab crash Ids, but it looked like the crash was something to do with a kernel hang watchdog firing.

I did not have this problem with the previous dev-channel build.

Tagging RB-Dev since this renders the device essentially unusable; we should try to avoid pushing another Dev build with this issue in it, if possible!

May be related to  issue 710131 ?

Crash ID 313e9b9050000000 corresponds to this.
@1: Yeah, looks like the same as  bug #710131 

<3>[  290.958742] CPU1 PC: <331f9cd4> 0x331f9cd4

I'll try to reproduce / sink my teeth into this tomorrow.  I'm kinda baffled about what could be happening here, but the first thing to do would be to match things up to the address map of whatever process is hanging so we can get some dieassembly.
Wez: the crash you point at says

- 9449.0.0 / 59.0.3065.0

That's different than the version you report above.  Maybe you were on 	9413.0.0 / 59.0.3054.0 before and you got an AU?  I guess you're reproducing the issue on both versions?

Re #3: I started hitting the problem after the auto-update, and it was
tricky to get the device to stay up long enough to show chrome://crashes[1]
- I think I filed the bug from a different device so perhaps I mixed up the
version info. :-/

[1] I did notice that the device stayed up for longer (several minutes) if
I didn't open or close any tabs - so when I Restore'd after a crash after
having opened chrome://crashes, chrome://crashes would be one of the
restored tabs and I could use it and the others for a little while.

Could there be some sort of deadlock on the kernel process table, locking
up a core, or something of that sort?

@5: It's sitting in userspace and the kernel can't cause the core to stop.  The only real explanation here is an errata.

I'm fairly confident that some small change to skia (or the compiler, or the compile flags for skia) is the root cause, but still trying to nail it down exactly.

I'm going to mark this guy a dupe.
