Kenneth Lee e4b69aa2a1 [PATCH] bug fix in kernel/kmod.c
I think there is a bug in kmod.c: In __call_usermodehelper(), when
kernel_thread(wait_for_helper, ...) return success, since wait_for_helper()
might call complete() at any time, the sub_info should not be used any
more.

Normally wait_for_helper() take a long time to finish, you may not get
problem for most of the case.  But if you remove /sbin/modprobe, it may
become easier for you to get a oop in khelper.
