I don't know the software stacks involved:

If I understood it correctly,
mesa 18.3.3 doesn't work with older kernels while 18.0 did work,
and so I'll do a bisection to see which kernel commit fixes the issue,
and then distro kernel maintainers may cherrypick it for older kernels.

If there's no need for mesa to work with older kernels without the
cherrypicked commit, then I guess yes, this issue should be closed, in
which case please close it for me or tell me to close it.

Thanks again!

Bug description:
  Several schools reported black screens after normally updating their
  Ubuntu boxes from 18.0.5-0ubuntu0~18.04.1 to 18.2.2-0ubuntu1~18.04.1.

  Downgrading mesa fixes the problem.

  lspci: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation HD
  Graphics 530 [8086:1912] (rev 06)         Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer
  Inc. HD Graphics 530 [1043:8694]    Kernel modules: i915

  Unfortunately I can't find a lot of useful information, here are some bits:
   * systemctl --failed says "gpu-manager" and "lightdm" have failed
   * Xorg.log is clean: https://termbin.com/6l2b
   * dmesg too: https://termbin.com/ip4e
   * It happens on lightdm/MATE, I don't know about Ubuntu GNOME.
   * If one runs `xinit` from ssh, it fails with:
  i965: Failed to submit batchbuffer: Invalid argument
