The interface specifies the symnum field as an input and output; the hypervisor sets it to the next sequential symbol's index. xensyms_next() incrementing the position explicitly (and xensyms_next_sym() decrementing it to "rewind") is only correct as long as the sequence of symbol indexes is non-sparse. Use the hypervisor-supplied value instead to update the position in xensyms_next(), and use the saved incoming index in xensyms_next_sym().
