Also, btw, this looks like it's triggered by the stmmac network driver.

I would attempt to boot your board with no network attached (if
possible) to see if my previous theory that bad memory is the culprit.
If it is, I assume that eventually some other slub error caused by a
different module would cause an oops - but your board should last a
bit longer with no network attached.

Cheers,

Mark
