No error messages that I could find (except one, below). I wouldn't have expected ethernet to be correlated either, but bluetooth definitely is—it's the only thing that requires ecdh_generic on my system (according to lsmod, at least). If bluetooth is turned off (either from BIOS or the wireless hardware switch) the system boots without the kernel oops even with the buggy kernels. And it doesn't seem to mind bluetooth being turned on later, after boot either. It feels like a sort of race condition, and a delay to loading ecdh_generic is sufficient to fix it.
I ended up applying your official (non-nasty) patch to the 4.14 kernel sources and recompiling the module, in the end. And it works great! There's now one cryptic error message during boot, that says
alg: ecdh: test failed on vector 3, err=-14
where -14 is -EFAULT, of course. I imagine this error message is what should have happened all along instead of the kernel oops, so I view it as a good thing!
The mysterious ethernet annoyances still remain, but they're intermittent and work-aroundable, and I agree they are a completely different issue...
Merci beaucoup encore une fois! I won't load up the comment section anymore, I'll try to contact you on email/irc if anything interesting develops!
