After a week of calm, the crashes returned, but now with
a breakpoint in kbd_buffer_store_buffered_event, it revealed
that after copying a text to the clipboard outside of Emacs
causes the broken event SELECTION_CLEAR_EVENT to be added to the
kbd queue.  Sometimes the event kind becomes 11, sometimes 27.
Their binary representations:

#b01011 => 11 (SELECTION_CLEAR_EVENT)
#b11011 => 27 (DBUS_EVENT)
   ====
Note that their suffixes are the same "1011",
and only the leading bit differs.

Looks like a bit flip that means a faulty memory.
Maybe I should acquire ECC memory as Linus suggested
