hmm ... your analysis gave me a wonderful albeit admittedly remote idea:
If only we had some kernel technology that could track and validate
memory accesses, and point out the cases where we access uninitialized
memory, just like Valgrind?
... something like kmemcheck? ;-)
So i booted that box with tip/master and kmemcheck enabled. (plus a few
fixlets to make networking allocations be properly tracked by
kmemcheck.)
It was a slow bootup and long wait, but it gave a few hits here:
kmemcheck: Caught 8-bit read from uninitialized memory (f653ad24)
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuiuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

false positive? Find below the quick hacks i did to pre-initialize skb
allocations that have RX DMA into them.
another one is:

this might actually be genuine use of uninitialized memory, hm? Or
perhaps gcc optimizing out bitmasks and kmemcheck not coping with it?
a third type was this:
kmemcheck: Caught 8-bit read from uninitialized memory (f653a2a4)

this too is likely a false positive related to RX packets?
none of this looks netconsole related.
I'll keep the box running under kmemcheck - maybe something pops up.
