[PATCH 05/13] kallsyms: refactor {,module_}kallsyms_on_each_symbol

Thu Jan 21 18:49:51 AEDT 2021


Require an explicit cll to module_kallsyms_on_each_symbol to look
for symbols in modules instead of the call from kallsyms_on_each_symbol,
and acquire module_mutex inside of module_kallsyms_on_each_symbol instead
of leaving that up to the caller.
