Last week I came across a patch that fixes a bug in the FUSE kernel
module:
  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=c6cdd51404b7ac12dd95173ddfc548c59ecf037f

This was included in linux-4.14 but has been marked for backporting to
older kernels as well. If the description matches the experienced
behaviour, running with an updates (or patched) kernel may help.
