That's a fairly safe assumption.
I can't read PPC oopses in my sleep the way I can do x86, and in
particular, I can't pinpoint that to the source code by just decoding the
instructions and matching them against what I have. Do you have that
binary, and can you do a 'gdb vmlinux' on it, and then have gdb tell you
where in load_module "load_module+0x990" and "load_module+0x958" are?
