Got the same thing on my Dell latitude 7490. But it mostly happens when
I leave it plugged (not sure that's a condition) overnight. It's not
doing anything on my case, but I usually have Emacs, Firefox, and a few
xterm windows.

I've since switched to current, because the only remedy I had was to
unplug it and suspend by closing the lid. It worked fine aftewards. But
if I suspend it while keeping it plugged, often I find it frozen in the
morning.
