In our production networks we had issues that some device needed
a manual restart, because there where hanging/panic/oopsing during
boot-time.

We added to the kernel-commandline the args: 'oops=panic panic=10'
like mentioned in this post:

Now its much better, nearly no manual restarts are needed.
I like to discuss that these changes are a good idea for everybody
and should be standard for headless/embedded systems in production.

If you care about "patching away errors", developers ("serial attached")
can choose to not include it. also an init/rc-script after boot
can switch this behaviour off.

While we are at this point: 'panic_on_oom' is IMHO also a good choice.
