Ok, a network outage gave me time to go hunting. Indeed it is a bad
interaction with the tree DRM merged into. All DRM did was to slip a
WARN_ON_ONCE() that nouveau triggers into a kernel module where such
things no longer warn, they blow the box out of the water. I made a
dinky testcase module (attached), and bisected to the real root....

debug: Add _ONCE() logic to report_bug()
Josh suggested moving the _ONCE logic inside the trap handler, using a
bit in the bug_entry::flags field, avoiding the need for the extra
variable.
Sadly this only works for WARN_ON_ONCE(), since the others have
printk() statements prior to triggering the trap.
Still, this saves a fair amount of text and some data:
