I managed to reproduce the problem - the kernel can deadlock on SMP if
the module being loaded contains the .init.memleak_aliases section.
I'll fix it and post another patch later today.


I have disabled SMP and system still hangs, but now I know when :)

Here is bug http://www.stardust.webpages.pl/files/kml/bug1.jpg
Here is config http://www.stardust.webpages.pl/files/kml/kml-config2

I think that Ingo's "Ignore loglevel on printks" patch is very useful.
