Kernel 2.4.22 oops with visor.o and pppd

[Faisal Malallah]

When I try to link my Palm Tungsten T to linux through USB using pppd to 
establish a network connection, the connection goes well for a while but 
then it disconnects and the kernel oops.

Using Kernel 2.4.22 on redhat 9
pppd version 2.4.1
