From: Hannes Reinecke <hare@xxxxxxx>
With 2.6.31 'crash' on x86_64 falls flat on its face as the '_end' symbol
is missing from the System.map file.
The culprit is commit 091e52c3551d3031343df24b573b770b4c6c72b6, which
moved the '_end' symbol into it's own section. Apparently this causes
kallsyms to not reference it properly.
So either we'd need to revert part of the patch to not include _end in
it's own section.
