oops question

does the attached oops makes sense or it is just messed up?

AFAICT the ksymoops is using right System.map, yet the stack
trace does not seem to follow logical order. it is from 2.4.6-pre1

for that matter is "defensive" programming the rule in kernel?
this ops could be avoided if the net/ipv4/ipmr.c:ipmr_new_tunel()
function was changed to check whether 'v' is null and if it is
true then just return.

I did not submit this patch though since I couldn't figure how
in the the first place code ended up there.
