Hello,
When rmmod'ing apm, I get a kernel panic. However, the machine
continues to function properly, AFAIK. Here's the dmesg:
[snip]
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address d2d9f211
printing eip:

After that, the module is gone, and everything works fine. I just tried
inserting and removeing it subsequent times, and it works with no errors
(so far). I only rmmod when apm is used by nothing.
The only reason I'm messing around with the apm module is that Loki's UT
seems to (sometimes) run much too fast with APM support in kernel, and
rmmod'ing it out seems to do the trick. This is probably indicitive of
another problem, though my system seems pretty stable (other than that
kernel panic...).
All said, this doesn't bother me, as my system stays up.
