Sorry that you have to hear from me again :) It seems that module
loading is still broken with this version of the patch, which is
something that I missed in my earlier testing since I only test a
monolithic kernel with my regular virtual machine testing. If I build
and install the kernel and modules in the VM via a distribution package,
I get the following splat at boot:

I also see some other WARNs interleaved along the lines of

  [    0.982759] no CFI hash found at: 0xffffffffc0608000 ffffffffc0608000 cc cc cc cc cc
  [    0.982767] WARNING: CPU: 5 PID: 170 at arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:1204 __apply_fineibt+0xa6d/0xab0

The console appears to be a bit of a mess after that initial message.

If there is any more information I can provide or patches I can test, I
am more than happy to do so.

Cheers,
Nathan
