It's a memory allocation failure for the SHM area which is very large (6
MB of continuous memory). You have to reserve some memory outside of the
kernel control for that (use the mem parameter in your bootargs).

Try this patch:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-omap/msg38350.html

However, even with this patch, don't expect everything to work just yet.
I got the kernel module to load, but when I try to run some tests (e.g.
load an image with the cexec tool from userspace-dspbridge), I get a
node allocation failure. I didn't have time to debug it further ...

We're probably missing some patches that were not applied yet to the
staging tree ...

Cheers,
Ionut.
