Regarding the engines not responding to autothrottle or crew input, my Boeing QRH for a 737 states that the condition for an "ENGINE LIMIT/SURGE/STALL" is one of more of the following conditions:
* Engine RPM or EGT indications are abnormal, approaching or exceeding limits
* No response to thrust lever movement
* Abnormal engine noises.

So in this case, I would classify this as both engines stalling at the same time. Of course the 777 checklist may contain different criteria for engine stall...

Edit: the non-customized 777 checklist contains the same, plus an 'unusual indications condition'.
