I can confirm, that the VMs do not crash anymore with vSphere 6.5 build
5969303 from 27.07.2017, that is why I lowered the severity.

But we have got still the issue with "Driver has suspect GRO
implementation, TCP performance may be compromised" and the fact, that
4.9.18-1 wasn't crashing and has not this message, while 4.9.30-1 was
crashing with the message.
