Huh. I see it here too, so I did a bit of digging. 

it's actually systemd. It fires up the kernel watchdog and sets a
10minute timeout. Then it does some more things. If any of them hang,
10min later the watchdog reboots your machine instead of it hanging
forever.

You learn something every day (if you are lucky).
