My question is: where are crashes? If the sections were
really in such bad shape and since we poison (and sometimes
even unmap) init after boot we should in theory see a lot 
of oops reports from this if there were really accesses to
them after boot.

Where are they?

The interesting question is how many true bugs are in these warnings.
