    Default kernel update causes ps to segfault

    Since upgrading the kernel on our webserver, when root runs ps, it
    segfaults.

    Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
    0000007c
    printing eip:
    c014bfee
    *pde = 00000000

    I get nothing with gdb cause there's no debugging symbols in ps.

    Please pass it through ksymoops and send a full bug report to
    the kernel lists.
