AWS ubuntu became unreachable after ssh login

Bug description:
I've reached strange situation with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with latest
kernel on AWS m5.xlarge instance.
System became unreachable after series of successful ssh logins.
systemd -user became zombie and block main systemd daemon (PID 1).
I've created bug https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/10123 but
it was closed with "there's a problem with your kernel".

Symptoms are very similar to

This situation is repeatable on 7 instances 1-2 times per week.
how to repeat: 1. Install ubuntu 18.04 LTS from official ubuntu image
2. update kernel and packages to latest version 3. from another
instance run
while `true` ;do ssh ubu...@your.instance.ip "hostname; ps -ef|grep
defunc |grep -v grep" ; done
By this command in couple of days I have 2->4->6->8... zombies and in
a hour system is frozen...
sudo reboot is not working, because systemd with PID 1 is unreachable.
kill -9 1 -- not working as well.
