Do you have "ppp" compiled as a module? There is a problem
with exception handling for modules ... I'm working on a
patch now.

We've got a report of ppp not working; what happens is that it
puts in the log:
Couldn't get channel number: bad address
when it sends the PPPIOCGCHAN ioctl.
However, if we replace the calls to put_user for
PPPIOCGCHAN & PPPIOCGFLAGS ioctls with copy_to_user,
it works fine. Shouldn't this not make any difference?
Bill
