Rupert,
Plus the dmesg you posted is by the RAM disk installation OpenBSD kernel.
You Should complete an actual OpenBSD installation to get the full dmesg.

"Similar to previous Silvermont generation design flaws were found in
processor circuitry resulting in cease of operation when processors are
actively used for several years. Errata named
APL47 System May Experience Inability to Boot or May Cease Operation
and
APL48 System May Experience Non-functioning GPIO Weak Pull-up Circuitry
were added to documentation in June 2017 stating:
The Low Pin Count (LPC), Real-Time Clock (RTC), Secure Digital (SD) card
and General-Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) interfaces may stop functioning.
The documents cited in the Wikipedia article, see for current versions..
that apply to the later CPU stepping models, if any, as time progresses:
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/specification-updates/pentium-celeron-n-series-j-series-datasheet-spec-update.pdf
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/specification-updates/atom-c3000-family-spec-update.pdf
APL47 Problem: Under certain conditions LPC, SD card and RTC circuitry
may stop functioning in the outer years of use.
APL48 Problem: When platform drives the GPIO pin low, GPIOs programmed
with weak pull-up circuitry may not maintain a value above VIH when not
actively driven in outer years of service."
Some other "interesting" errata:
APL23 HD Audio Recording May Experience a Glitch While Opening or
Closing Audio Streams
APL25 USB Device Controller Incorrectly Interprets U3 Wakeup For Warm
Reset
APL27 USB 2.0 Timing Responsiveness Degradation
APL50 System May Unexpectedly Shut Down When Software Requests a Reset
APL53 Warm Reset May Result in System Hang or Unexpected System
Behaviour
Keep your eyes open and.. expect some more technical Atom CPU findings.
