Is the source code available somewhere? Maybe, somebody can find the mistake
just by having a quick look?

I don't know how your driver is in the kernel? Did you patch it and have the
driver compiled by the Makefile in linux/drivers/scsi/
If this is the case, doing a kernel and module compile should result in
consistent kernel and module symbol versions.
If you compile the module outside with your own makefile, you will probably
not use the correct symbol versions from the kernel ...

Note that changing any kernel config option can result in new symbol versio=
ns.

I suggest to just turn symbol versioning off for testing and development
purposes.=20
