Issue description

Chrome Version: 59.0.3071.93 (Official Build) beta (64-bit)

(2) Click to open it.
(3) Switch to a different tab in the same window.
(4) Switch back to the PDF tab.
(5) Switch away again.

Expect that the tab displays the content consistently.

Unable to attach file containing about:gpu contents, because crbug errors out :-/
I've noticed the same problem in 60.0.3112.24 (Official Build) beta (64-bit)

As far as I can tell, this happens to any pdf file opened in Chrome. I can reproduce by doing the following:

(1). Open a tab and go to this URL: https://patents.google.com/patent/US8523254B2/en
(2). Open another tab to the right of the tab in (1) and go to this URL: https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/pdfs/2f2876f4d8db2849fff2/US8523254.pdf
(3). Switch to the tab in (1).
(4). Switch back to the tab in (2).
(5). Switch back to the tab in (1).
(6). Switch back to the tab in (2).

At step (4) the pdf tab is blank. At step (6) is displays normally.
