Comment (by jeremyfelt):

 Hate leaving this here as I haven't fully figured it out yet. That said...

 Somehow after an automatic update upgraded the db version 25824, the
 cached option for `db_version` on my site was not cleared. This caused a
 loop of sorts when I went to `wp-admin/`.

 `wp-admin/admin.php` detected that the cached option was different than
 expected and redirected to `wp-admin/upgrade.php`. Because `upgrade.php`
 defines `WP_INSTALLING` as true, `get_option( 'db_version' );` performs a
 non cached query and sees that the upgrade was successful, which displays
 [http://cl.ly/image/3s1N3p2K1Y3c this message]. Repeat.

 I dug through briefly to see why the cache wasn't cleared when that option
 was updated during an automatic upgrade, but didn't find anything
 immediately. I'll pick it up and/or be prepared to eat crow in the
 morning. :)
