Same story for:
$ uname -r

Proposed workaround works, indeed I don't think this is the "Watermark" bug at all. Besides, the origin of this bug is described here: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Amd_watermark and gives much easier solution.

P.S. Still, the key error persists:
# update-initramfs -u
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.8.0-12-generic
modprobe: ../tools/modprobe.c:550: print_action: Assertion `kmod_module_get_initstate(m) == KMOD_MODULE_BUILTIN' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

So I think this particular bug should be marked as related to (or merged with) the #1073062 bug. Moreover, it affects NVIDIA, AMD adapters and proprietary driver for Broadcom Wi-Fi.
