Posting only the output of ksymoops without the oops itself is almost

What can I do with this if I don't know what %fs, %esi and %ecx were? It
could be a NULL pointer, a trashed pointer, even a bit flipped because of
memory error (not in this case probably).

So, people, please post the whole thing, _both_ the oops and the decoded
stack trace from ksymoops.
