That hole is plugged in 2.2.10-ac1+ and hopefully will get into 2.2.11 . The solution isn't great: fail the 'insmod sym53c6xx' but it is better that an oops.
You will be pleased to hear that your system ran out of memory under the 16MB level even though your sym53c8xx could have used any available RAM for DMA purposes.
If you really don't want to see this again then build that driver into your kernel. [It is also less likely to happen if you send that 1 GB of memory to me and replace it with 16 MBs :-)]
