Unfortunately you need to do this on the build kernel image before it
has been stripped of all of it's symbols.

Mikael, you built your kernels right?

Go into one of your OOPS's and extract the "RPC: " hex value, and run
the gdb command:

bash$ cd src/linux
bash$ gdb ./vmlinux
(gdb) x/10i 0x${RPC_HEX_VALUE} - 16

Thanks.
