This dump is useless to anyone, as the addresses need to be converted
to symbol names. The EIP being the more important one, followed by the
call trace.
If you don't want to have to type out a whole oops to feed to ksymoops,
you can look up the addresses in the System.map from that kernel.
Note, there are likely to be addresses that don't resolve. For example,
you may not find c0198147, but you will see c0198140 and c0198190. In
this circumstance, take the lower symbol.
Numeric only oopses are entirely useless.
