Kernel panic: Fatal exception



The module is being unloaded with the following procedure:
lock_kernel();
flag=1; /* This flag does a break in the for(;;) loop of the thread after
the interruptible_sleep_on_timeout , after the break current=NULL;*/
mb();
kill_proc(pid_thread,SIGKILL,1);
unlock_kernel();
kill_proc(2,SIGCHLD,1); /* assuming that keventd is running with PID 2 */
