Ingo appears to have crossed patches.

You can add a line
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(show_stack)
to arch/i386/kernel/i386_ksyms.c and rebuild.  But I think that
is probably just a quick fix if that; I think that he got bits of
the wrong patch in.

"such as" and "something like" aren't very clear reports.  Please
cut and paste precise messages instead of trying to summarize when
you don't understand.

Again, give the EXACT output at that point, not a summary.  The
real output (if you had pasted it) would have given context that
could have been used to answer your question.
