Looks like same issue or at very least a very similar one.

I do have many snapshots but the snapdir is defined as hidden for
filesystems.

Anyway, the advices there look to me like are more about hiding the
symptom rather than fixing the issue. I still had it happen at least
once during regular operation.

Well at worst at least I have way to reduce number of crashes.

Thank you.
