Normally this would mean that somebody is trying to "kfree" a pointer that
wasn't allocated with "kmalloc()". That seems unlikely in this case, so it
might be a double free or some other internal corruption..

That "sys_delete_module()" thing seems like some stale kernel stack
contents, so it's possible that that is the thing that messed up and left
something in an inconsistent state.

Do you know what module it was?
