XPC API Misuse by a NSURLSession

Details:

The stack trace indicates an issue with usage of the XPC API. It looks like NSURLSession background uploads is causing issues with XPC. Since XPC is not available to third-party developers on iOS, this is probably an Apple bug. If this affects your ability to use background uploads, we recommend filing a radar with Apple and working around background uploads, if possible.
