The Alt-SysRq-T output might have been useful, except that the file you sent doesn't contain all of the output! You sent part of one of the system log files. Those files are unreliable; they don't capture all of the output from the kernel. What you need to do is run dmesg; it never fails to capture anything. It does sometimes run out of buffer space, though, so you may have to set CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT to something larger than 15, and you will certainly want to invoke dmesg with something like "-s 1000000".
