Even if there was a good that wasn't, that last "bad" (6f929b4e5a02) is already sufficient just on its own to say that likely v3.16 already
 had the problem.

 Just do

    gitk v3.16..6f929b4e5a02

 and cry.

(or "git diff --stat -M v3.16...6f929b4e5a02" to see what that commit
 brought in from the common ancestor).

 So I'd call that bisect a failure, and your "v3.16 is fine" is
actually suspect after all. Which *might* mean that it's some hardware
 issue after all. Or there are multiple different problems, and while
 v3.16 was fine, the problem was introduced earlier (in the common
 ancestor of that staging tree), then fixed for 3.16, and then
 re-introduced later again.

Is it possible that Dave and myself were seeing the same problem after
all?

I'll go bisect it even further back...

For both of you, I'm curious how long 3.18 lasts if you turn off the serial console (and netconsole) completely.
