Ok - not a kernel problem. Building old kernels (that used to not have this
much churn) while checking for the start point for a bisect started showing
the same churn.

I tracked the start of the problem to when I updated my build machine
on jan 3rd - and it's now throwing a new version of udevd[*] into the initrd
that I throw at my test machine.
Probably a bunch of other initrd components are new versions too.

[1] Builds since Jan 3rd all have this extra line in dmesg log:
udev: starting version 147
