Please help: lsof reports kernel problem

[Robinson Tiemuqinke]

Hi,

 months ago I compiled 2.6.15/2.6.16 kernel on my FC4
boxes. the vanila kernels (2.6.15.6 & 2.6.16.23) are
directly downloaded from www.kernel.org and compiled
without any changes.

 kernels runs pretty smooth and in fact no other
engineers reports any problems with the kernels, but
today when I ran "lsof" command I found there are the
following problematic entries related to kernel,
please help.
