I ran into similar problems several days ago after some large changes to
the kernel were committed. I think that if you rebuild your lkm modules
so they match the kernel you are running things will work. At least they
did for me. I haven't tried an elf kernel for a while, but I suspect the
same would happen if the '.ko' modules were not in sync with the kernel.
