You say in the title "Unable to handle kernel paging request". It means you 
got a panic... Have you saved somewhere the complete message? Have you 
checked if it's inside /var/log/messages? Does "dump was in ext3 area" means 
that the call trace mentioned ext3_ <something>? If it speaks about 
__init_new_context, proc_mm or such things then the SKAS patch is likely to 
be at fault, if not it's unlikely...
