OK, I've just tried repeating this experiment on 2.2.18 (no devfs) and
it oopsed this time, so there's obviously something else going on
here.

I've had a quick look at both the 2.2.18 and 2.4.0-test12 drivers for
msr and cpuid, and I've noticed something curious.
This is the comment from 2.4.0-test12, cpuid.c:

Devfs might explain the 2.4.0-test12 oopses, but it can't possibly
explain the oops with 2.2.18. I don't use devfs with 2.2.18.

Hi,
I have just compiled Linux 2.2.18 (UP) and Linux 2.4.0-test12 (SMP,
devfs), and in each case I compiled the msr and cpuid drivers as
modules. However, when I tried to read from the devices (using "cat"),
I got oopses from both 2.2.18 and 2.4.0-test12. Neither the msr.o nor
the cpuid.o modules
