I just realized that you can run netconsole - so no need for serial console.

But.. <scratches his head> I am really baffled by this. None of the patches
in #linux-next do anything there.

Please do try to run v3.1-rc8 (or v3.1-rc9) and see if that fails? If it does
then we can try to play a bit of bisection game and figure out what caused this
mayhem.
