When you see "_R__ver_" in a kernel symbol it is 99.9% certain that you
did not compile the kernel correctly, you have a mixture of old and new
genksym files. This is especially important when the invalid symbols
are in critical areas like SMP locks and cli(). I strongly suggest
that you clean up, rebuild the kernel, then see if you can still
reproduce the error.

cd /usr/src/linux
cp .config ..
make mrproper (clean is not enough, it leaves genksym cruft around)
cp ../.config .
make oldconfig
make dep clean bzImage modules (or zImage)
Install your new kernel and modules, reboot.

Also get the latest ksymoops from ftp://ftp.ocs.com.au/pub/ksymoops.
