Some bad luck this week.  I am hitting what looks like a kprobes bug on 
the 2.6.21-rc3.
The system is crashing in the stap prologue test.

 illegal operation: 0001 Ý#29¨
CPU:    3    Not tainted
Process find (pid: 1571, task: 000000003fc28718, ksp: 000000003a357c70)

The crashing PSW (ip) is in the middle of the probed instruction.
Digging into it..
