[BUG?] test11 - oops on loading some modules

Hello !

I patched my test10 directly to test11 (I didn't use the PREs, so I
can't
say which exact version caused my problem, though if it's
important I can check that). Anyway, after I saw the problem, I
downloaded the whole kernel tree to see if it's not just some patching
problem, but it still happens:

Some of the modules I load (bttv.o , eepro.o , ide-scsi.o), return a
kernel oops, and since then I see them in lsmod stuck in that position:
bttv 55460 1 (initializing)

It seems to me like a problem with modules loading (some of these
modules weren't changed since test10)..
Here's an example of the oops that bttv.o returns:
