Apply this debugging patch. It uses KERN_EMERG instead of KERN_DEBUG
to ensure that the messages appear on the console. Capture the boot
log, extract all the notify register and unregister messages. Convert
the addresses of *nl and n to symbols[*] and mail the result to lkml.
[*] A quick way of converting text with possible addresses to symbols is
ksymoops -m System.map -A `cat log.extract` < /dev/null
ksymoops -A extracts anything that might be an address, looks it up
in the system map and prints the corresponding symbol.
