Single screen randomly freezes after severe slowdown, can't restart it

I'm having an issue while using the Sway compositor. I have a dual-screen setup, and randomly after an unspecified amount of time, usually when watching Youtube videos but not always, the computer slows down to a crawl (less than 1 FPS) for a couple of seconds, then one of the screens (not always the same) will freeze and the other will go back to normal.

The frozen screen will still respond to mouse movement (the cursor changes to a finger when hovering a link, to a bar then hovering text, etc.), but the image is completely frozen. If I try to disable the screen to turn it off and on again using "swaymsg output SCREEN disable", then the entire computer freezes and I have to restart via the power button.

This issue is currently not happening with GNOME on Wayland, and I don't have a X.org window manager to verify.

I managed to snapshot the output of dmesg right after it happened and it seems to be an issue with the amdgpu module:

My system is a Core i3-9100F with a Radeon RX 570 with 8 GB VRAM. I don't believe other hardware is related to this issue, but if need be I can provide more detailed information.

In case there is a bug tracker for which I can report this straight to maintainers, please let me know.
