        <pre>I'm experiencing occasional crashes of gnome-shell (3.16) due to failed ioctls
requested by Mesa's vmware DRI backend.

Any pointers on where I should take the apparent root issue would be
appreciated - I have no idea whether Mesa or the kernel driver is at fault for
the ioctl failing in the first place.

Kernel logs (v4.0.5) report an ioctl failure:

[15949.294396] [drm:vmw_generic_ioctl [vmwgfx]] *ERROR* Dropped master trying
to access ioctl that requires authentication.

Followed by a crash of gnome-shell, due to an apparent null pointer
dereference:
