I switched over from kernel 3.8.13 to 3.14.19-ti-r28 (compiled with netconsole support) and after a little over 24 hours uptime, my BBB rebooted without any entries in the netconsole log or any logs on the BBB that I could find.
Did anyone have any luck in troubleshooting this issue any further? In the meantime, I guess I'll try your suggestion of disabling the watchdog for now.
