Bug#600299: linux-image-2.6.32-5-openvz-amd64: Openvz kernels appear to log unitialised memory to the console with log_buf_len=XX

[Tim Small <tim@seoss.co.uk>]

Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.32-23
Severity: normal

When passing log_buf_len=2M to the kernel, the kernel logs nulls, or
other aparently unitialised RAM to the console, and netconsole.

Checked on:

lenny 2.6.26-openvz amd64  (Dell PE300)
lenny 2.6.32-openvz-bp amd64 (Dell PE300)
squeeze 2.6.32-openvz i386  (under kvm)

Make debugging other kernel issues difficult :-(
