Message-ID: <20130411185632.GA7569@redhat.com>

Subject: print out hardware name & modules list when we encounter bad page
tables.
Given we have been seeing a lot of reports of page table corruption
for a while now, perhaps if we print out the hardware name, and list
of modules loaded, we might see some patterns emerging.
