Putting your phone in R&D mode disables the watchdog timer. This would imply you have HEAVILY borken your n900. i.e. some critical process is unable to run, therefore DSME is rebooting the n900. By enabling R&D mode all you have done is 'disable' the reset button for when things go tits up.

Changing your kernel will not solve this. You have 2 options:

1. Leave your device in R&D mode (broken).
2. COMPLETE re-flash and start again.

Considering the circumstance it is HIGHLY recommended that you re-flash your n900.
