oops logging during module load/unload

Parent article: kerneloops.org records its 100,000th oops

I just noticed today that oopses that happen during insmod/rmmod/modprobe are printed to the console but not logged by syslogd/klogd. I wonder how many oopses have been missed because of this.

if it's still in dmesg, then the kerneloops client will still pick it up.
The database has quite a few examples of these already.
