Mouse scroll wheel stops working if moved while the page is loading

Reported by teo8...@gmail.com, Apr 18 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/57.0.2987.133 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to any page that is long enough to have a scrollbar and that is big enough to take a while to load, e.g. https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalu%C3%B1a
2. Start moving the mouse scroll wheel, as if you were scrolling downwards, from the very beginning while the page is still loading, and don't stop trying to scroll until the page is fully loaded
3. after the page is fully loaded, try again using the mouse scroll wheel.

*** NOTE: this doesn't reproduce the issue systematically 100% of the time, it's random, so pleasy try hard before you say you can't reproduce ***

What is the expected behavior?
obviously, the mouse scroll wheel should still work

What went wrong?
the scroll wheel stops working, and never resumes working afterwards, until you reload the page or navigate to another one. It's pathetic.

Did this work before? Yes not sure, a few weeks ago I think

Chrome version: 57.0.2987.133  Channel: stable
OS Version: 
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 25.0 r0

verified on both Linux AND Windows (this stupid bugtracker should have checkboxes for the OSes rather than a selector isn't that obvious?)
 
I can confirm this. It happens randomly when I scroll really fast while the page is still loading. When that happens I have to open a new tab as that tab is no longer able to scroll any page I navigate to.

Chrome: Version 57.0.2987.133 Channel : Stable
OS Version: Windows 7x64

This used to be the case for me. Then I started seeing the issue go away by just reloading the page (or navigating to another one).

Now, again, I'm seeing the issue remain forever in a given tab after it has been triggered.

It seems your test is correct. I assume you tried 12-15 times without always restarting chrome and starting from scratch on a new tab every time, right? Usually I observe it when loading a new page in an existing tab. You need to start scrolling very soon (before even the smallest bit of the page is visible) and quite fast in order to be likely to reproduce the issue, but I assume you have done that.

I am on ubuntu 16.04 btw, though that shouldn't be relevant given that the issue can also be observed on Windows.

I believe this is a duplicate of  issue 704410  which had an issue in M57. It is fixed in M58 which is currently rolling out. 

teo...@ can you confirm this is OK now on M58 which rolled out yesterday on Linux (Windows is still at a limited population roll out but should be 100% next week)
