For the ERROR the kernel is the important part. I can be that it's triggered by userspace doing something funny (and likely, sinc there's a good chance you're hitting a less well tested path when crashing). But it's a kernel issue. To track the kernel issue down can you please boot with drm.debug=0xe added to your bootline, reproduce the issue and then attach the complete dmesg?
