Subject: Fix race between cat /proc/*/wchan and rmmod et al
From: Alexey Dobriyan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
kallsyms_lookup() can go iterating over modules list unprotected which is OK
for emergency situations (oops), but not OK for regular stuff like
/proc/*/wchan.
Introduce lookup_symbol_name()/lookup_module_symbol_name() which copy symbol
name into caller-supplied buffer or return -ERANGE. All copying is done with
module_mutex held, so...
