Comment(by lindi):

 In the spirit of "release early and release often" I'm attaching a
 prototype that logs all kernel messages to a circular buffer at 127M and
 dumps them as kernel messages after reboot. Use with mem=127M so that the
 last megabyte can be safely (ab)used as the circular buffer. I have tested
 this only on ARM.
