Your module problem caught my eye...
The patch is not correct, since you actually miss the last longword of
the module image. That is: if the value of codesize is correct...
Also: the code for determining the actual number of pages is correct as is.
So, why are you having a problem?
The critical thing in all this is the value of "codesize".
Since you have such a big difference in the values from the different
versions of the module support utilities, I suspect that you are using
some of the advanced features that were added after my time.
I think that you might be using the __initfunc feature, or something
similar, and for some reason your module makes the newer insmod a bit
confused with regard to the real size.
Am I close?
