Why KVM fails to load required modules to kernel after updating kvm package to the latest version?

Issue

• After updating to the latest "kvm" package (kvm-83-224), loading kvm module fails with the below error message.

  # modprobe kvm-intel
  
  FATAL: Error inserting kvm_intel (/lib/modules/2.6.18-194.el5/weak-updates/kmod-kvm/kvm-intel.ko):Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
  

• Checking dmesg shows a lot of "Unknown symbol" error messages.

  kvm_intel: Unknown symbol kvm_xxx_xxx
  

• Virtualization is enabled in BIOS of the host.
