[PATCH v5 2/2] kallsyms: make kallsyms_show_value() as generic function

From: Maninder Singh
Date: Wed Jun 07 2023 - 23:39:21 EST


This change makes function kallsyms_show_value() as
generic function without dependency on CONFIG_KALLSYMS.

Now module address will be displayed with lsmod and /proc/modules.

Earlier:
=======
/ # insmod test.ko
/ # lsmod
test 12288 0 - Live 0x0000000000000000 (O) // No Module Load address
/ #

With change:
==========
/ # insmod test.ko
/ # lsmod
test 12288 0 - Live 0xffff800000fc0000 (O) // Module address
/ # cat /proc/modules
test 12288 0 - Live 0xffff800000fc0000 (O)
