We've been debugging this for a few days on IRC. Tony also posted
various patches that should help, there might be more issues remaining,
but it looks like timeouts reading battery and thermal drivers reporting
abnormal values are both part of the problem, and then there was a pm
issue in serial that caused panics on reboot/poweroff, which in turned
caused the watchdog to reset the device.

This is a very short summary, and I'm not sure if the issue is fixed
yet, but we're trying various things.

Agreed, I think this is the right thing to do as well.
